Building History

James Quinter Clemmer (born 02/17/1881 in Polo, IL-d. 07/20/1942 in Seattle, WA) owned the first movie theatre in Seattle, (the Clemmer Theatre) and the Kenneth Hotel which contained the Dream Theatre on its first floor. Clemmer, according to his World War II draft registration card, lived here on 04/27/1942, just about three months before he passed away. He worked for the movie exhibitor John Hamrick (1875–1956) at this time.

Building Notes

With its extravagant parapets, Clemmer's house was done in the Mission Revival Style, a style popularized in CA around 1900 and spread thereafter on the West Coast. The house dated c. 1910.
