Download or read book Spokane s Legendary Davenport Hotel written by Tony Bamonte and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In its glory years, the historic Davenport Hotel was at the center of Spokane and the Inland Northwest's social life. Louis Davenport's famous restaurant, which predated the hotel, opened in 1889 and quickly became Spokane¿s greatest attraction. As reflected in this book, the history of the Davenport enterprises truly is the history of Spokane. Numerous dignitaries, royalty, and world-famous entertainers were guests of the Davenport. The hotel was the pride of the city and patronized by people from all walks of life until it fell into its decline and subsequently closed in 1985. Finally, after years of languishing under threat of demolition, the grand old hotel was restored to its former grandeur and reopened in 2002. This easy-to-read history book is a tribute to Spokane¿s most noteworthy and beloved landmark and those responsible for its creation, evolution and preservation.

Download or read book Kirtland Cutter written by Henry C. Matthews and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2018-07-01 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early years of the twentieth century, Spokane was singled out for praise in the West for the quality of its architecture and the impressive way it had rebuilt after the devastating fire of 1889. Major credit for the city's distinctive character was extended to Kirtland Kelsey Cutter for his "rare architectural force and genius for design." His remarkable career, stretching from the Gilded Age to the Great Depression, allows a fascinating study of the evolution of an eclectic form of architecture that was an inevitable response to rich regional and historical influences during a time of transition from frontier settlements to modern city. Cutter's influence was felt beyond Spokane--in Seattle, other areas of Washington, and in Oregon, Idaho, and Montana. He was also responsible for buildings in the East and even for one in England. After financial problems ended his career in the Northwest, he began anew at age sixty-three in southern California, and worked there as an architect until his death in 1939 at age seventy-nine. Henry Matthews presents a comprehensive study of the whole body of Cutter's work, with ample photographs and illustrations. The book is based on exhaustive research in both the Northwest and California, revealing the influences on Cutter and his associates, the processes at work in the design and construction of the buildings, and the relations between the architect and the many people who commissioned his work. Particularly useful to Matthews's research was a collection of 290 sets of drawings, as well as office accounts, letters, and books from Cutter's library--materials acquired by the Eastern Washington State Historical Society. He also was able to interview former assistants and clients, who provided valuable insights on the architect and the way Cutter worked. In addition, many of the architect's residences, hotels, clubs, and commercial buildings are still standing. This book adds significantly to an understanding of Western urban and regional history. But Cutter's experimentation in many styles and the imaginative nature of his work make for a study that goes beyond regional limits and sheds light on national trends. Winner of the 1999 Washington State Book Award
