Yeah that's probably not it, the city states it as built in '29. It does have some similar features though. The archival photos I was looking at were that of Keith Ewart who had a note that it may be the GTP depot but he wasn't sure himself.
On this topic I did come across some interesting info related to the Grand Trunk/Chateau Qu'appelle:
this home

and this home

were both constructed for James Kirkpatrick, superintendent of the GTP depot on College Ave with materials intended for the hotel.
and these rowhouses

were built as housing for the construction workers of the hotel.
