Constructed in 1903, the George and Clara
Clark House was built during the first phase of single-family
construction along East Mission Avenue, between the 200 and 800
block, what is today identified as the Mission Avenue National
Historic District. In 1986, the Clark House was designated as a
contributing historic resource of the Mission Avenue District.
The Clark House is an excellent example of the Free Classic
Queen Anne style. The Clark House was constructed for George E.
Clark, secretary/treasurer of the Spokane Casket Company that
was located in Peaceful Valley and owned by the Smith Funeral
Company, a pioneer firm in Spokane. F.W. and Grace Harrington
later acquired the property in the late 1910s. During the
property’s period of significance from 1903 to 1918, the Clark
House achieved historic significance for its association with
the architectural development and settlement of the Logan
Neighborhood, specifically along East Mission Avenue, and is
additionally architecturally significant as an example of the
Free Classic Queen Anne style.
