Description
Peter G. Hemingway (1929-1995) emigrated from England to Canada in the 1950s, responding to the government of Alberta’s demand for more architects. Initially, he worked with the Alberta Department of Public Works, but later left to pursue a career in the private sector, first in partnership with Charles Laubenthal and later as sole proprietor. Hemingway was a notable Edmonton modernist architect. He was the first Alberta architect to be awarded the Massey Medal for Architecture, an honour he received twice. Among his most outstanding projects were the Coronation Swimming Pool, the Stanley Building, the Muttart Conservatory, and the Central Pentecostal Tabernacle Building.
