Brian VanderBerg and Hunter Heggie want to renovate and restore the historic Oliver building in downtown Lethbridge.

The Oliver Building is significant for its association with early commercial development in Lethbridge. The Oliver was constructed in 1906 when Lethbridge was emerging into a commercial hub in Southern Alberta.

Hunter and Brian have a great vision for the Oliver Building that will bring life to 5th Street South in our downtown’s core. Hunter once had his business ‘The King of Trade’ in this location and would like to redevelop and restore and ultimately save this downtown building. Both are known in our community as being exceptional business men and over the years have employed hundreds of people in our community as well they have and continue to support many non-profit organizations and community projects.
