Building History

Robert Jones, a surveyor, worked with Jacob Bassi in the firm of Jones and Bassi, who surveyed the original Island Point Addition Tract in which this house was located. Jones lived in this house with his wife, Gerd, and 4 children; three of Jones's children by another marriage had already left home. This was Jones's second marriage and the household was a "blended" one. The house stood vacant for a short time before the Jones Family moved in during the summer of 1967. Black and Caldwell served as the construction firm for the house. (This information was relayed to the author by Noreen Jacky, daughter of Gerd Jones, 11/09/2010.) Landscape architect Edward M. Watanabe (born 08/23/1920 in WA) created the landscape design for the Jones Residence.
