Scope and content
An unusual circular driveway draws attention to the new home of Frank Washburn in May, 1954. The one-story rambler has the usual attached two-car garage; what is not usual, however, is how the buildings gently nestle against the curved driveway. The six room home had two large bedrooms and a breezeway leading to the garage. It made good use of vertical siding and also combined brick and shake building materials. The home on Clover Creek Dr. S.W. was built by Mel Pedersen, general contractor and past president of the Tacoma Master Builders Association. (TNT 9-19-54, E-10)
