STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE
 The Frank & Edith Ford House was erected in 1925 and is significant in the areas of “architecture” and “community planning & development.”  It is an excellent and typical example of domestic architecture built in the Rockwood Terrace Addition, a neighborhood planned for upscale residential living on the South Hill in Spokane, Washington.  The house was constructed by John E. Anderson, a prominent home designer and builder in the Spokane region. The home was built for Edith Janet Ford and Frank D. Ford, a successful Spokane broker who specialized in mining investments.
