Description and history
It is named for William Boeing, the founder of The Boeing Company. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[2] The house was completed in 1914, and was designed by Charles Bebb in the Mediterranean Revival style.[3] The floorplan is approximately 14,000 square feet (1,300 m2).[2] Boeing occupied the house from its completion until the 1950s, at which time he donated the property to Children's Orthopedic Hospital, now known as Seattle Children's.[3] The hospital sold the property to John Elroy McCaw shortly after acquiring it.[4] The house was sold again after McCaw's death in 1969.[5]
