This is the story of a house designed by hatmaker-turned architect Judah Shumiatcher, built for his family in 1975, and demolished in 2013. Like so many other distinguished houses to Vancouver, the only crime House Schumiatcher ever committed was to be sited on a plot of gold. This image rich book, sponsored by the School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at the University of British Columbia, is the first in a proposed series of noteworthy, endangered houses in Metro Vancouver. Due to rapidly escalating land values, many unique postwar houses built between 1945 and 1980 are being demolished. The series seeks to document this local building tradition before it is lost. As Victor Hugo tells us, books are made more durable then buildings. AUTHOR: Leslie Van Duzer is a Professor of Architecture and the Director of the School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at the University of British Columbia. Illustrated throughout
