TAKE A STEP BACK IN TIME

ESTABLISHED IN 1928

Built by local rum-runner giant, Harry Low, the Low-Martin Mansion was once a stopover for notorious Al Capone and the Purple gang. It later became home to Canada’s 21st Prime Minister, Paul Martin Jr. before it was eventually abandoned and sat empty.

RESURRECTING THE MANSION

After decades of neglect, the derelict mansion was rescued in 2012 by local businessman Vern Myslichuk, who immaculately restored the home. Vern’s company BetterMade Cabinets worked on the restoration over several years. The Mansion, or Devonshire Lodge as it was christened by Mr. Low upon its completion in 1928, is a rag-to-riches story and a must-see destination for both visitors to Windsor and locals alike.
