This Hilltop area Queen Anne style home was built in 1906 near historic Wright Park. Currently it is used as an attorney's office. The house is listed on the National Historic Register.
Due to its closeness to downtown Tacoma, the Hilltop neighborhood grew quickly during the end of the 19th century. It was a predominantly working class neighborhood developed with one and two story single-family homes, with occasional double houses. They were tightly packed on the standard 25 foot wide lot. Today many of those houses remain and although the neighborhood has had problems with crime and drugs, recent revitalization efforts by the neighbors and city have started to turn things around.
