The Ackerman Building on Dewdney Avenue suffered significant damage. It was the most imposing warehousing structure of its day in the district. Buildings located as far east as Scarth Street were damaged. Fire Hall no. 2 lost part of its exterior wall, but would still serve as a temporary relief station for area residents in the following days.

Thus the tornado exited the city shrouded in even more mystery than that with which it had entered Regina.
