Little Finn Hill Tour

October 11, 2014

Docomomo WEWA invites you to join us for Docomomo US Tour Day 2014!

The Little Finn Hill neighborhood in Kirkland, Washington is home to a collection of modest, mid-century modern residences designed by revered Northwest architect Paul Hayden Kirk and built for developer Richard G. Robinson in 1954-1955. Docomomo WEWA invites you to explore this community of livable homes that was once prominently featured in Life and Sunset magazines in the 1950s. One of the houses on the tour was featured in Pacific NW Magazine in 2012.

Five houses on the same street (NE 113th Place in Kirkland) will be open to view. They are variations of the same plan but each house is different enough that you'll see how the architect's creative use of details and siting gave each home a different feel.

With this event, we celebrate the 100th anniversary of Paul Hayden Kirk's birthday in 2014. We thank the homeowners for graciously opening up their residences and helping us plan this event.

If you find yourself in other cities on Tour Day, we encourage you to attend one of the other great tours. Learn more about Docomomo US Tour Day 2014.

If you are not a Docomomo US member, we encourage you to join today. If you join, you may purchase tickets for this event and future Docomomo WEWA events at the discounted member price. Membership in Docomomo US means you also become a member of the Docomomo WEWA chapter. 

WHEN: Saturday, October 11, 2014. The tour is an open house format from 1:00 to 4:00 pm but please arrive by 2:30 pm to check in so you have time see all five houses. The tour is self-guided. You'll receive a tour booklet at check in.
