STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

The Guy Browne House was built in 1908 for Guy C. Browne. By age 35 he had risen to become president of a successful banking and property investment empire started by his father, J. J. Browne, who was one of Spokane's most prominent founding fathers and early pioneers. Guy Browne, along with his influential family, helped develop Spokane and nearby Moran Prairie. The house is also significant as one of the earliest and finest examples of an American Foursquare style home in Spokane County.
