Hycroft is a mansion in the Shaughnessy district of Vancouver. It was designed and built in 1909–12 by Thomas Hooper for Alexander Duncan McRae who was a businessman, farmer, politician and soldier. The internal plasterwork was sculpted by Charles Marega. During the Second World War, it was donated by McRae to be used as a hospital for wounded soldiers. In 1962, it was bought by the Canadian Federation of University Women who renovated it to be their clubhouse.
