Reglena

20 Auburn Avenue, Northcote

"Reglena" belonged to the late Angelina Regan, mother of Collingwood football player, Jack Regan. A portrait of him - still hanging when the house was auctioned in September 1979 -  wearing his Collingwood jumper and holding a football, has the inscription "Winner of the Copeland Trophy, 1936". Jack Regan lived there from his birth in 1912 until 1947. The house name is a combination of the family name, Regan, and Angelina.
