The register’s text, word for word

Description

St. Luke's Hall is a two-and-a-half storey Queen Anne Revival style brick building with four square towers capped by pyramidal roofs situated on a corner lot on McCurdy Street in the City of Miramichi.

Heritage value

St. Luke's Hall is designated a Local Historic Place for its architecture and its association with promoting spiritual and social life within its church community.

St. Luke’s Hall is recognized for its architecture. Rev. Robert Fulton, son of one of the 'Paris Crew' oarsmen and minister to St. Luke's Methodist Church, planned the structure. Neil Brodie put the plan into architectural shape in 1913. It is a good example of Queen Anne Revival architecture in the Miramichi area. This two-and-a-half storey brick building exhibits a distinctive jerkin roof and four square towers with pyramidal roofs.

St. Luke’s Hall was originally designed as a parish centre with 15 classrooms, gentlemen’s and ladies' parlours, library, kitchen, missionary society room, gymnasium, main auditorium to seat 600 people and bowling alley. Some of the current spatial arrangement of the interior reflects the building’s original function and configuration. It is now associated with the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #3, as its current place of meeting.
