Kitchen in colonial-style home. This colonial-style home was located in the Sylvan Park neighborhood in the Lakes District, one of the area's newer housing developments, not far from South Tacoma. The kitchen appears to have been a corridor style kitchen with sink and dishwasher across the aisle from the built-in stove & oven, and refrigerator. There were an abundance of knotty pine cabinets. A table and four chairs fit nicely in the kitchen nook. Colorful linoleum decorates the kitchen floor. The home was designed and built by Mark Hoskins Home Construction Co. Ads welcoming prospective home owners ran in the News Tribune on consecutive Sundays, March 23 and March 30, 1958. This three bedroom, 2 1/2 bath home at 3011 Sylvia Blvd. So. was advertised at $23,900. Tacoma businessman Russ Dunmire would become one of the home's owners.
