Samuel Crockett and his wife Marjorie commissioned Seattle architects James Chiarelli (1908-1990) and Paul Hayden Kirk (1914-1995) to design this residence for them on a then rural piece of land on Mercer Island, WA. Crockett, in 1951, was an Assistant Program Director for the KING Broadcasting Company.
