Back to the Niven Lake subdivision, with its array of houses: Some are innovative; others are butt ugly; all are pricey. What's interesting is how this subdivision reflects so many styles. No cookie cutter approach here, not even with the prefab modular houses that come in two parts. From the top left: 1) a modern teepee; 2) this one reminds me of a maritime home; 3)two ultra modern styles; 4) this smaller suburban house is on sale for $519,000; 5)half of a double wide will soon be plonked down on the rock and connected to its other half and 6)what a double wide can look like when it's pieced together and prettied up. Apparently, the owners of the first big homes that sprang up around the lake weren't thrilled when the prefabs started to show up.

LOVE the teepee, LOVE the ultramodern, HATE the suburban double wides or whatever they're called.
The weirdest thing about the Yellowknife housing market is that people are falling all over themselves to pay $400K and up for double-wide trailers on postage-stamp-sized lots that look like the surface of the moon.
I can't imagine EVER wanting to live in Niven. You couldn't pay me enough to live there. In fact, I don't go near the place unless I have to.
