The two-storey Commercial Block at East 8th and St. Andrews in North Vancouver is getting a makeover. New owner Brad Hodson plans to return it to 1912 with a large coat of Strathcona red paint trimmed with Victorian peridot and Edwardian buff accents.
For the past four years Brad has driven by 277 East 8th on the way to his wine making business at 2nd and Lonsdale. One day he noticed a For Sale sign. He took possession in June.
