STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE

Designed by Cutter and Malmgren, Spokane’s most celebrated firm of architects, the Georgian Revival style Spokane (City) Club building serves as the eastern anchor of the Riverside Avenue National Historic District, which features a park-like setting planned by the nationally renowned Olmsted Brothers landscape architects of Brookline, Massachusetts.  The Spokane Club, the first formal social organization in the city, relocated to this site in 1910 after a fire damaged the upper portion of its previous building, now known as the Chamber of Commerce/Metals/American Legion Building.
