Seen here from Scotsmans Hill, the bakery was built in 1929/30 after the previous Mitchell Bakery burnt down. The bottom floor was for assembly equipment and ovens, while the top floor was for making cakes. Stables and garages were also features of this bakery, which was capable of producing 1800 loaves per day.

This view to the west along 14th Ave at 6th St shows the former bakery in its latest role as storage for the Stampede. There were no signs on the building when we visited it recently, and the only clue to its usage was a stack of road signs on the west side. (back)
