Eastgate is now on the land that was originally the Tower Ranch until the 1970s when it was then subdivided into residential building lot.
Taken from Wikipedia :- Since at least 1905, Charlie Bonnevier owned and lived on the land now occupied by East Gate. In 1944, a parcel of 160 acres (65 ha) was sold to the Tower Family, which became the Tower Ranch. As this property was one of the few private plots along the soon-to-open highway, and the highway’s aesthetic qualities were of serious concern to the BC Parks, the family agreed not to clear-cut or otherwise make the property unpleasant for motorists.[2] Little of the original ranch remains, however one original house stands, and the roads are named in memory of the ranch. The ranch formerly maintained an airstrip[3] which is now decommissioned and is now home to several houses. Near the Esso, the historic Pasayten Cabin stands. They are currently uninhabited
