Formerly located on Redwood Avenue in Winnipeg, a one-storey wood frame house, measuring 20 feet by 36 feet, was designed by local architect Max Zev Blankstein and built in 1911 by owner Harry Folb (?-?) at a cost of about $1,100.
The house was demolished in 2015 and the site is now occupied by a new house.
