This Edwardian house was completely rebuilt as a 1985 replica of the original. The original house was built in 1904, and owned by the Solloway Family until 1950. Along with the other eight Edwardian houses in this row, this house was saved from demolition in 1983-1985 with the completion of rear yard infill, and is now part of the Pacific Heights Housing Co-operative developed by architect Roger Hughes. The houses were moved forward and regrouped as four pairs, and converted into duplexes. The address on the Heritage Register is 1031 but the current addresses are 1031 & 1033 (duplex). The houses have been painted with authentic colours under the Vancouver Heritage Foundation’s True Colours Program, and represent a traditional streetscape of heritage homes.
