The Harker House is a historic home located in Magrath. The house was originally built in 1907 for Bank of Montreal managers and is known as the Harker House located at 79 West Harker Avenue. The first manager to occupy the house was Mabel, R.S., in December 1907.[1]
Today
In November 2009, the historic Harker House was damaged extensively by fire, mainly destroying the basement level of the home. Damages from the fire have left the interior of the building structurally unsound; however, the outer structure was deemed salvageable. Fire damage to the home was said to be in the $750,000.00 to $1,000,000.00 range. The home sat vacant, slated for demolition unless a new owner willing to do the restoration work purchased the home. That never happened, and the building was demolished in 2010.
