Kinnear home on Queen Anne Hill, circa 1898
Order an ImageGeorge Kinnear arrived in Seattle in 1878 and became active in various civic activities. He promoted road construction through Snoqualmie Pass, organized an immigration board, and was treasurer of a local power and railway company. In 1885, he moved into a large, new mansion the south slope of Queen Anne Hill.
This photo, taken by Anders Wilse between 1897 and 1900, shows the Kinnear home on Queen Anne Avenue. With its turret, irregular shape, and fancy woodwork, it is an excellent example of the Queen Anne style of architecture which gave the neighborhood its name. Kinnear left the property to his church to develop a home for retired people. Bayview Manor now occupies the site.
