Description

The John A. McGuffin Residence is a one-storey, wood-frame Arts and Crafts-style bungalow with lapped siding and an internal red-brick chimney. It is situated on the north side of Kennedy Street in the historic Brow of the Hill neighbourhood in New Westminster.

Valeur patrimoniale

Constructed in 1911, the John A. McGuffin Residence is valued for its association with Brow of the Hill’s Edwardian-era development.

This house is additionally significant as a typical example of speculative-built rental housing, constructed during a time of rapid residential development. This house was built by local contractors and brothers, Robert Lane (1858-1947) and William Lane (1866-1928). It was then sold to John A. McGuffin (1870-1966). In 2001, this house was protected through a Heritage Revitalization Agreement that enabled subdivision of the property and relocation of the house.
