Description

Built in 1920 for William Gilbert Northey is a good example of Craftsman housing built immediately after the First World War. The house is known for its association with the Vancouver Better Housing Scheme which, under the Soldier’s Settlement Act, loaned money to returning veterans to build homes for themselves and their families. The Northey residence is one of 153 homes built under this program which operated from 1919 to 1922.
