Acme Alberta: the 1st Acme Hotel ca1910 & the 2nd on the same lot 2025. More👇

The current hotel replaced the first one when it burned down about 1912. It is not clear whether it's a totally new building atop the old foundation, or if some parts were salvaged and reused. The local history book is rather quiet on the subject.

The two buildings look much the same, and appear identical or near identical in footprint.

This comparison was captured while shooting an episode of the Beer Parlour Project at the Acme Inn during March of last year. Check it out here: https://www.beerparlourproject.com/acme-inn-acme-alberta/

We had a grand time, met so many interesting people, enjoyed some chicken wings and learned a lot about this venerable old institution. Everyone was so welcoming and happy to have us there. Stop by if you're in the area and tell them you saw this post.
