Glines House (Tremblay Apartments)
55 Hargrave Street

Built in 1906, for G.A. Glines, this house was one of the last single family mansions to appear on the Hudson's Bay Reserve land. The house was designed by Alexander D. and William N. Melville, immigrants from Scotland who established and architectural practice in Winnipeg in 1903, and built by Hudson and Davidson for $9,000.
The asymmetrical design of the home along with the cross gables, dormers, and the tower at the northeast corner are all indicative of the Queen Anne style in which it was built. The house is set a ways back from the property line on its lot between Broadway and Assinniboine Avenue, on the East side of Hargrave.
Glines remained at the home on Hargrave for only two years. After three other occupants, J.A. Tremblay acquired the property and added a two storey addition in the rear and turned the mansion into a 15-suite apartment building. Although during the conversion a continuity with the original style was maintained, most of the original elements of the interior were removed.
