Ginter began innovating the brewing industry in British Columbia before dying of a heart attack in 1981. He was a controversial figure in Prince George. His house, which was where the now Ginter Park is, was the site of many legendary parties. File primarily consists of newspaper clippings and reproductions discussing the City of Prince George's decision to demolish the building and the controversy surrounding this decision.
