Wallace Property
The Wallace family has resided in Galetta for some 50 years. Their property on the main street (Galetta Side Road at the intersection with Mohrs Road) is notable to passers-by for the large model of the CN tower as well as their garden that contains a miniature of the Galetta train station with a miniature train and a short section of track.
It is interesting to note that the Wallace garden is in the original location Whyte's Hall (later Russell's Hall). This hall was the centre of community life in Galetta starting in the early 1900s. The Wallaces purchased the lot when the hall was moved to Russell Park in 1987 to be the main building for the new Community Centre.
