Moose Jaw station (Canadian National Railway)

The Moose Jaw station is a former railway station in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, Canada. It was designed by John Schoefield, and built by the Canadian National Railway in 1919. The station, consisting of a two-storey central block with single-storey wings to the north and south, is constructed primarily of Claybank brick and Tyndall stone.[1] The building was designated a historic railway station in 1992,[2] and a municipal heritage property by the City of Moose Jaw on 8 April 2002.[3] Its exterior has been restored and its interior extensively renovated by its current occupant, Sahara Spa, which operates a destination day spa in the building.[4]
