| | Etobicoke reclusive's house explored 1990 < on 1/14/2003 5:14 PM >
| | | If anyone of you is from Etobicoke in Toronto, you might be familiar with Plant World on Eglinton Ave. There used to be two homes on the property where a strange man used to live without electricity, phone or cable. He was known as Suit Case Jack. He spray painted his driveway blue and called it "The new Canoe Canal". He also sewed zippers in his beard. I spoke to him a few times and he thought it was 1949. He rambled.
Anyway, in 1990, a fire broke out and he died inside. I managed to get inside the home and wow, the place was totally charred and smelly but he had a collection of discarded dolls and one entire wall was covered with photos of women from the 1960's. There was a destroyed grand piano and amazing wood work throughout the place, complete with a dresser that was built into the wall. Sadly, both homes were torn down and I managed to salvage 5 wine bottles from the early 1920's.
Does anyone remember this house?
