Description

The Boeur Cottage and House at 3532 West 5th Avenue are of heritage value principally because of their association with early and long-term owners. The property was originally a Crown grant to Henrietta Isabel Boeur dating back to 1907. She and her husband, Antoine J. Boeur, longshoreman and stevedore, had the Cottage built in 1912 by Victor Fontaine, carpenter. It is one of the earliest houses built south of West 4th Avenue and west of Macdonald Street, marking the beginning of expansion of Kitsilano west as far as Alma Street.
