THE MOVE TO SPARWOOD - Only One Remains

Unfortunately, with the recent demolition of the 1907 and
1908 twin powerhouses in 1997 virtually nothing stands in the
valley where two very active and enthusiastic communities once
existed.

Returning
former residents who had left the area altogether following
the relocation are now greeted only by the lonely Michel
Hotel.
Besides the hotel the only physical evidence remaining of
Michel-Natal's existence are sod-covered slack piles and
moss infested fire hydrants; ghostly, vague, and unfitting
reminders of once vibrant and dynamic neighbourhoods.
