- 7 - 15. Sa^er*s Haple Shop at 2423 Marine Drive In 1913V V/Vj. Irwin contracted a building; ^Ir, J.W. McLean made the architectural design; Mr. Watt did the construction. The West Vancouver Conservative Association leased the building and naiaed it the Cdnseirvative Hall, From the beginning it had a community use. Archives has a picture, taken in 1913, of a school class on the steps to the south or Marine Drive side. To see the steps a.' â- now, you must go inside the building, as a remodelling brought the front of the building out to the street and put the entrance at sidewalk level. In 1922, the Conservatives ended their lease and the building became Dundarave Hall. It has had varied uses; a public hall; a dance hall; an exhibition centre; a badminton court; a cabaret dine and dance called the Palms; a Presbyterian church. In time it fell vacant. In 1956, Henry and Shirley Sager purchased the building and opened their I^laple Shop, The building has been extensively remodelled, including the incorporation of a small building next door. It seems to be in excellent condition. In one area, the design on the ceiling recalls its use as the Palms. The Sagers were, in 1982, petitioning Council for permission to convert part of the building to a neighbourhood pub. In 1934, Miss Helen Hunter Had built a small structure beside Dundarave Hall for an â€01d English Tearoomâ€. The building was later used as an antique shop, first by rirs. Van Luven, and later by I-Irs. Taylor. It is now part of the frontage of Sager*s store, on the east. 16. The Corner of 25 Street and I^rine Drive This is the historic heart of Dundarave but nothing really remains of the early days but memories. The south-east comer, now a parking lot, was first occupied by Lance G-arthorne's store. A 1919 picture shows the building blazoned with a sign "Refreshmentsâ€. By July 1919, the business had been taken over by Mr. Arthur Terry who continued the business as "Terry’s Grocery". In the 1920’s, Wilson and Moore took over the grocery and continued it into the early 1930's. The building was then occupied by Dundarave Pharmacy under a series of proprietors; V/.L. Ker, James Pinlayson, Alec Stephen, and finally Frank Libby. Under I^Ir. Libby’s ovmership, the building was moved one hundred or so feet to the east.
