Mount Royal was located at the corner of Avenue W and Rusholme Road, where it still stands today. With additions of various labs and classrooms, the school has grown to occupy the entire block on Avenue W from Rusholme Road to 29th Street. Classes are also held in the old Estey Elementary School on Whitney Avenue, where its now called the Royal West Campus.
