Canadian geese over edmonton's historic molson house

Edmonton's old molson house: The original building was built in 1913. In 1961, the company built a decorative building meant to resemble a fur trade fort in front of the brewery. Named Molson House, it was used as a hospitality lounge to entertain customers. Molson closed the brewery in August 2007 due to an worker's strike, In April 2008, Molson-Coors, the owner of the site, offered to give the building away to any organization that would pay to move it off the property. The building was dismantled brick by brick and moved in 2011 after it was bought by an anonymous Edmonton family. There are plans to redevelop the site that will integrate the former brewery with residential, retail and commercial space.
