Oak Bay's largest private residence.
Architects Francis Mawson Rattenbury and Samuel Maclure collaborated to design the home in 1919 for the original owner, Robert William Gibson, and his second wife Sarah Jane Giibson. Gibson had derived his fortune from lumber interests in Winnipeg and the Beaver Lumber empire. 1590 York Place is still often referred to by its original name "Gibson House".
