The Field Log House, located in the Bellevue community on the corner of 113 Avenue and 68 Street, has recently been designated a Municipal Historic Resource. Built in 1936 this residence is significant due to its unusual log construction. This form of construction is rare in the area and is one of only a handful of examples in the greater Edmonton area. Built in the waning days of the Depression when Edmonton was experiencing little growth, the choice of material reflected the availability of labour and the need for inexpensive and available materials. Well known for its significance as a community landmark, the house was home to the Field family for 68 years. Congratulations to the current owners on the designation for this beautiful historic home.
