Notable locations
55 Nassau, a 38-floor condominium in the Fort Rouge area, is currently the 5th-tallest building in Winnipeg and the tallest residential building in the city (until the completion of the Artis Reit Residential Tower on 300 Main Street).[2] At the time of its opening in 1970, it was the tallest apartment building in western Canada, standing at 109 metres (358 ft) tall.[3][2]
738 Nassau is a multifamily housing complex designed by Manitoba architect Gustavo da Roza.[4]
Also on this road are the Nassau Street Church (formerly Gospel Mennonite Church;[5] 232 Nassau) and St. Luke’s Anglican Church (130 Nassau), which became a municipally-designated historic building in 2018.[6][7]
