McDougall Facility Purchase

McDougall | September 2025

PURCHASE PRICE: $3,850,000

In September 2025, Central took possession of historic McDougall Auditorium, opening an exciting new chapter in our vision to see more people know Jesus and find community throughout the Edmonton region.

Built in 1910, this remarkable building had served as a place of worship and community gathering for more than a century. When the opportunity arose to purchase it, we saw the potential to establish a new congregation in the heart of downtown Edmonton while preserving a significant historic landmark.

The purchase represented both an extraordinary opportunity and a substantial commitment. With approximately 25,000 square feet of space, a beautiful auditorium, and numerous rooms for ministry and community use, the facility offered tremendous possibilities—but also required significant restoration and ongoing care.

Through Building Together, we're investing in the building's renewal while establishing a church community that can serve downtown Edmonton for generations to come.
