William Nimmons - Community of Bankview

[Admin]

On 14th street sw, one block up the hill 17th Ave, is a big old red brick house/mansion. This mansion once belonged to William Nimmons (1826-1921) who bought a 1/2 section of land which he later sold as lots which became the community of Bankview. Below is a picture of the house and a link to a much more detailed account at
