1021 Richards Street
Built in 1907 for salesman Robert F. Emory, this building was at
one time a violin studio. Percy Linden has owned the house since
1970 and in the spring and summer months his many colorful birdhouses
are visible. Although increasingly rare, examples of single family
homes still remain from the original Yaletown neighbourhood, one
of which is the George Leslie House, located at 1386 Hornby Street.
This house, completed in 1888 is the oldest surviving house in Vancouver
and has been adaptively re-used as an up-scale restaurant.
