Please join the Winnipeg Architecture Foundation for a free tour of
the recently restored Fortune Block project. Mark Fortune served on
city council from 1879-1881 and became wealthy through real estate. He
founded the Winnipeg Real Estate Board but lost his life aboard the
Titanic on a return trip from Europe in 1912.
In 2016 Winnipeg businessman John Pollard purchased the Fortune Block
(built in 1881-82) and the Macdonald Block (built in 1883) and has
rehabilitated them for residential and commercial mixed-use. The
building is wheelchair accessible.
