Winnipeg
Winnipeg has scores if not hundreds: apartment buildings were extremely popular prior to the First World War. They are one of the signature building forms of the city. Only a few surviving buildings are of the grandiose size that is more common in Montreal though. Most are 3 or 4 storeys. All photos by me or from my postcard collection. I took a lot of these when on a mission to document signs and entrances so I don't have a lot that show entire buildings, unfortunately.

The Victoria Court, 471 William:
The Conway Court, 165 Kennedy - as the business district displaced former residential areas in the 50s and 60s, a few of these things somehow escaped and are now awkwardly stranded in the midst of blocks of modern office and commercial buildings:
A page from a prewar viewbook stating that nearly $10,000,000 of buildings had been built to that point. The buildings illustrated are, clockwise from upper left, the Warwick, the Devon Court, the Lee Court and a smaller one I don't recognize:
The best known of them all, the Queen Anne Revival style Roslyn at 105 Roslyn Road, a very prominent location:
As a reminder of what firetraps these places could be, a memorial notice I happened to see while out and about a few years ago, which turned out to have been placed by the forum's "Mr. Christian" aka local history blogger Christian Cassidy:
