Burns Manor
Burns Manor was the Calgary residence of Senator Pat Burns, a successful businessman who founded Burns Meat. It was located in the Beltline District of Calgary, Alberta on 4th Street between 13th and 14th Avenue. Construction started in 1900 and was completed in 1903. The property was torn down in 1956 to make room for an expansion of the Colonel Belcher Hospital. (The Colonel Belcher Hospital's services have been relocated to (Carewest Colonel Belcher ), and today the original location of Burns Manor is now the site of the (Sheldon M. Chumir Health Centre )). ==Construction==
Pat Burns commissioned the house to be built in 1900. He hired his friend, Francis Rattenbury of Victoria, British Columbia to design the building. Burns was familiar with Rattenbury as they were close friends and business associates.〔(Cornerstones: Patrick Burns (Manor House) )〕 Thomas Underwood, who would go on to serve as Mayor of Calgary, was contracted out for construction.〔 The exterior was primarily sandstone which was brought in from the Shaganappi Quarry and was cut on location.〔 Lumber for the project was milled at Colonel Walker's sawmill. Sash and solid oak doors were supplied by W.H.Cushing mills. Total cost of construction was somewhere between $32,000 - $40,000 with additional funds spent on landscaping, land, and furnishing.〔
