The Queen Anne Revival/Shingle Style house at 46 Cartier Street was built for Newell Bate in 1901 - likely an early work by W.E. Noffke. It was later the home of New Brunswick Senator Geo. W. Fowler, and between 1924-42 the residence of Supreme Court Justice Thibodeau Rinfret. From 1942-65 it was the D'Youville Convent, then a nursing home, a bed and breakfast, and most recently the Embassy of the Syrian Arab Republic.

La maison Bate
Texte provenant d’une plaque posée sur le devant de la maison :
«Excellent exemple des demeures qu’on fait construire les résidents aisés du centre-ville. Cette maison fut construite pour Newell Bate, commerçant retraité. Les cheminés, les vérandas et les pignons ouvragés font de la maison un exemple incontestable du style Queen Anne.»
