The Kelly Ramsey Building was an historic building located in Downtown Edmonton at 10040 101A Avenue on Rice Howard Way. ==History== James Ramsey was a department store owner who opened up a store in the Tegler Building (to the north of the Kelly Ramsey Building). Shortly after moving to Edmonton in 1911, he required more space and moved into the building which was built by a blacksmith John Kelly. Not long after Kelly's death Ramsey bought the building from his widow in 1926 for $100,000. He then extended the story westward calling it the Ramsey Building. In the 1940s the Government of Alberta bought the building.〔 More recently, it had been owned by Worthington Properties. In March 2009 a fire broke out and gutted most of the building. Police determined it was caused by arson and on April 2 a man was arrested for the fire.〔 〕 In September 2009, the Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta ordered a judicial sale of the building due to foreclosure for $3 million, down from its previous price of $10 million.〔 〕 In 2013 the building was demolished, to be replaced by the Kelly Ramsey Tower. The Kelly Ramsey Tower is a 25 storey office building, which will recreate the original building facades on the tower's podium. The tower is expected to be complete in 2016.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kellyramsey.ca )〕
