While spending the weekend In beautiful Tracadie, New Brunswick, on the North Shore of our beautiful province of New Brunswick, I took a picture of a very different looking house. I've driven past this house many times in the past and this weekend I thought it would make a great blog post, so here it is. Apparently it's over thirty years old and the original owner was from Ontario and he lived in it for only a couple of years. The cool thing about this is it actually turned very slowly and was run by the power of the river that it sits besides. I have no way to back this info up, I'm only going by what my wifes brother in law told me. He has lived in the area his whole life and remembers it being built. He said it only rotated for about a year and then it broke down and hasn't turned since. I wanted to get more pictures but didn't have the time so "the stop along side of the road" ones will have to do.

Interesting building, I wonder what the inside looks like?
I would guess it probably doesn't look much different then it did when it was built (ie. "dated"), but I could be wrong :)
I'am from Nova Scotia
Hey Matthew...I'm sorry to hear that...;) No one's perfect...
How neat to see a house I see every summer in my travels to Val Comeau and to Tracadie-Sheila. It has always got my interest too raising question as to how it looks inside!!............Shirley
Hi Shirley…Yeah I’d like to see inside also. Maybe someday I’ll stop and ask if I could take a look. So Shirley, where are you from?
this is just amazing...
seems like a mix of bauhaus and walter gropius architecture with a twist.
