Triumvirate on Mount Seymour Parkway

There are three single family homes sitting on the south side of the east end of the 3600 block of Mount Seymour Parkway.  They are the last of the single family homes on this long block.  The other housing is multifamily homes.  And across the street at this corner that is Mount Seymour Rd. and the entrance to Mount Seymour Provincial Park, is Parkgate Shopping Center.  There is no listing in the Building Permit Book at the North Vancouver Archives for any of the three homes.  And the 1960 and 1965 City Directories do not even list Mount Seymour Parkway.

The first of the three similar single family homes, the most western,  is at 3601 Mount Seymour Parkway.  It was listed in the 1971 City Directory and so was its owner, Eakujapaa.  In 1980 the owners was named  Elmer Akuganpas. 

In 1991 and 1995/1996 the owners were Clive and Wendy Mynott.  Clive Mynot was employed as a fitter welder at Pacific Truck and Trailer Ltd. during that time.  Clive continued to live at 3601 Mount Seymour Parkway in the year 2000 since it was reported in the 1999/2000 North and West Vancouver Phone Directory as his address.  And the Mynott family continued to live there in 2006/2007 since the Phone Directory listed Leslie Mynott at that address.  It seems that Clive Mynott did not move far in 2008/2010 as he was then listed in the Phone Directory as being at 1931 Deep Cove Road.  Deep Cove crosses Mount Seymour Parkway about a mile east of the 3601 Mount Seymour Parkway address.


Note: The room on the lower floor that featured large sliding glass doors probably started out as a  garage.  A driveway leads to it.  This similar house design was seen in the Blog Post at 2895 Edgemont Blvd., "The Reverend's House", November 16, 2010.
