The Mackenzie Walk

This walking tour focuses mainly on the downtown which is rich in the history of the City's commercial development.  In the 1980's the City of Revelstoke took part in a major revitalization program where most of the original buildings located in the downtown core were restored.  Some of the main attractions on this tour include the Art Moderne City Hall, the Art Deco Theatre, and the beautifully restored late Victorian home at 815 MacKenzie Avenue.  To view the map of the MacKenzie Walk, please click on the link below.
