The Bras d'Or House is a historic building in Baddeck, Nova Scotia, Canada.

History

The original Bras d'Or House was built around 1800 and housed a hotel operated by James Crowdis.[1] The second owner was Robert Anderson and later his son Alexander Anderson took over the hotel.[1] The building was destroyed by a fire in 1893 and the younger Anderson rebuilt the new Bras d'Or House on the same location the following year. Alexander Anderson operated the hotel until 1924.[1] Between 1924 and 1946 the hotel went through several different owners before being purchased by Alton and Judy Langille who operated the hotel until 1958.[1] In 1958 the building was purchased by George P. Fraser who converted the hotel into apartments.[1] The present day building has undergone significant physical changes and currently houses a Chinese restaurant[2] as well as apartments.

Architecture

The original Bras d'Or House was constructed in the Georgian style, with two and a quarter storeys and a steeply pitched gable roof.[1] The building featured an attached annex in the same style. The current Bras d'Or House was built as a three-storey building in the Second Empire style, with a mansard roof.[1]

Present Use

Since 1965 the building has housed a Chinese restaurant known as Wong's Bras d'Or House.
