Located at 7 Otto Drive on Latham Island, this log cabin is one of Yellowknife’s oldest surviving buildings. Built in 1938 as a private residence, the city’s Bank of Toronto branch opened here six years later. Allan Lambert, former president and chairman of the Toronto Dominion Bank, cut his teeth as branch manager here. In 1961, the bank outgrew this small building and relocated its commercial operations. Today it is once again a private residence.
