Deja Views: Which famous Canadian once lived at this house on Beech Avenue?

By DAVID VAN DYKE

I don’t have much info on this archival photograph shown above. The photographer is unknown, but I do know that this house is close to the lake on Beech Avenue.

Judging by the bell bottom pants the woman in frame is wearing, I’d say this image was taken some time in the mid to late 1970s. I also heard that a famous Canadian lived here, but I don’t know who or if it’s true.

So I will put the question out to our readership. Please drop me a line to gdvandyke61@gmail.com if you know who that famous Canadian was. (Hint – there is a plaque on the property.)

Thank you.
