Constructed in
1904, the Chester Gibbs 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 Gibbs House was designated as a
contributing historic resource of the Mission Avenue Historic District.
The Gibbs House is an excellent example of the Free Classic Queen Anne
style. The Gibbs House was constructed for Chester Gibbs, vice-president
and manager of MacGillis and Gibbs Lumber Company located in the Empire
State Building. During the property’s period of significance from 1904
to 1923, the Gibbs House achieved historic significance for its
association with the architectural development and settlement of the
Logan Neighborhood, specifically along East Mission Avenue, and is
architecturally significant as an example of the Free Classic Queen Anne
style.
