Historical Home Spotlight: R. B. Bennett House
Year of Construction: 1912

Community: Upper Mount Royal
Architectural Style: Georgian Revival

Bennett, Canada's 11th prime minister and a man who, despite growing up in New Brunswick and spending his final years in England, is indelibly linked with Calgary's history.
