The Fotheringham House is
significant as a contributing structure in the Browne’s Addition
National Historic District and for its association, though brief, with
David B. Fotheringham, a successful building contractor and community
leader who served as Mayor of Spokane. Fotheringham built this house in 1889 and occupied it with
his wife Mary while he built his permanent home next west at 2128 West
Second Avenue, completed in 1891. After
building this house, Fotheringham turned his attention to the site
across the street, where he constructed the opulent Patrick Clark
Mansion at 2208 West Second Avenue.
Mrs. Mabel C. Williamson, widow of Victor, bought
Fotheringham’s first house in 1915, remaining to 1960.
James L. Red, a Spokane salesman, bought the house around 1970.
It remains in the Red family as a single-family residence.
