MacGregor House Moving


MacGregor House will be moving to a new location this Wednesday, Aug 22 at 9 am.

The two-story house, a former Mount A satellite residence, will be moved one block in its entirety. The house was recently sold and is being moved up the street to the corner of York and West streets, where it will be a private home.

This is actually the second time MacGregor House has been moved, giving it another unique place in Mount Allison’s history.

While access to the site on York Street will be limited, photographers and interested individuals will be welcome to watch this historical move from a distance.

Mount A staff will also be available for questions. Please contact Michelle Strain, Director of Administrative Services at 364-2249 (mstrain@mta.ca) for additional information and a more detailed schedule.

The MacGregor family and House hold a special place in Mount A’s history and although the house is no longer a student residence, we are pleased to see the facility begin a new life as a private home once again.
