With its glistening white clapboard
frame, massive marble-like columns, red roof and red brick foundation,
the stately Armstrong House is reminiscent of the grand, antebellum
mansions of the South. Located on Spokane's prestigious
South Hill, the Armstrong House is in the Ninth Avenue National Historic District. The house was built in 1910 for Major James
Melville Armstrong, a Civil War veteran and early Spokane business and
mining entrepreneur who died shortly before the house was built.
His
wife Lida B. Armstrong succeeded her husband as president of his
company and oversaw the construction of the house.
