- /<9 - 20. 2503 Ha.wood Avenue Originally the home of Mr. and I^rs. Benson G-ladwin, this house was built about 1911. Water service was not provided until 1916 but the Gladwins obtained their own by pumping water from I-Iarr Creek into a storage tank mounted on posts to get it above the first floor level. Gravity took it back to kitchen and bathroom. In 1922 the house became the residence of the Reverend and Mrs. A.M. O'Donnell. T-Ir. O'Donnell was minister of the United Church until his death in 1928. 21. 2540 Haywood Avenue George Lloyd, who lived here, worked at railway right of way and bridge construction, in West Vancouver and else- vrhere. At one time he was the maintenance man at the shingle mill referred to at the corner of I-Iarine Drive and 27 Street. In the early 1930's Mr. LLoyd established a garden nursery on his property and when he died his son con- tinued the business. The T-Iaple Leaf Garden Spot now runs the business. The growing area has been extended to Marine Drive. A wallsr/ay from I^!arine gives additional access. 22. 2567 Kings Avenue i-Ir. and Mrs. B.R. Harrison built this as their first home in West Vancouver. It originally consisted of the centre portion only, the gabled wings on the east and on the west being added prior to 1918. The son, Rupert Harrison, was for many years the Municipal Clerk of West Vancouver. On his retirement he undertook to do archival work for Coimcil. He supplied much of the material for this walk. 23. 2587 Kings Avenue In 1923, the Harrisons moved to this new home, designed for them by architect Hugh ii. Hodgson. The contract price was 07,500. The only changes have been the closing in of the verandah and the reconstruction of the front steps. The latter was necessitated by the sale of the adjoining lot for another house. 24. 2557 Kings Avenue Mr. Vernon Shaw, a la^^yer built this house in 1913 and lived in it until he and his family moved to Bdmonton in 1920. I-Ir. Shaw wou3.d not sell the house as he intended to return to West Vancouver but he did .lease it tophi^*.^ and Poppy (Pop) Chapman. They lived in the house until 1945 as tenants and then owners, buying the property when Mr. Shaw died.
