The Macdonald Engineering Building is the proud first home of the Faculty of Engineering at Â鶹AV. Originally built in 1893, this historic structure was a generous gift from Sir William Macdonald and Thomas Workman, designed to house the rapidly expanding Faculty of Applied Sciences.
Tragedy struck in 1907 when a fire devastated the building, but the spirit of resilience and progress prevailed. By 1909, the Macdonald Engineering Building was rebuilt, rising from the ashes to continue its legacy. Today, it stands as a vibrant hub for the Departments of Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, and the Dean’s Office.
This iconic building is not just a place of learning; it is a testament to the enduring spirit and innovation of Â鶹AV’s engineering community. To explore the complete history of the Macdonald Engineering Building and discover its remarkable journey, please visit the .
