It was used as a filming location for [[Caprica (TV series)|&#039;&#039;Caprica&#039;&#039;]], standing in for [[Clarice Willow]]&#039;s country cabin.<br /> <br /> == History of the building ==<br /> <br /> The cabin was built in 1950 by Victor Golden at a cost of $3,000. The District of North Vancouver expropriated the land and building from Golden in 1969 and incorporated the property into Murdo Frazer Park. For several decades the cabin served as the park caretaker&#039;s residence before the District began renting it out for film and television productions.&lt;ref group=&quot;external&quot; name=&quot;lazarus_evelazarus_murdo_cabin_history&quot;&gt;{{cite web|url=https://evelazarus.com/a-cabin-a-fireplace-and-a-murder/#:~:text=The%20District%20of%20North%20Vancouver%20expropriated%20the%20land%20and%20the%20building%20from%20Victor%20Golden%20in%201969|title=A Cabin, a Fireplace and a Murder|author=Lazarus, Eve|publisher=evelazarus.com|date=December 17, 2022|accessdate=27 May 2026}}&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> The cabin was awarded heritage designation by the District of North Vancouver in 2018, protecting it from demolition.
