Meeting and pickup
The tour starts out at the West entrance to Crescent Park. You'll visit the magnificent Moose Jaw Public Library building, before meandering by the amphitheatre, water fountain and cenotaph of Crescent Park. Then head downtown, by way of Temple Gardens and the old CNR and CPR train stations.
The Latimer residence, number 37 on the south side of the street, is a 2.5 story brick clad house completed in 1905. As you can see, the home is set on a tree lined street adjacent to houses of similar scale and age of construction.
