  • Historic Overview

    The Gaffney House was built in 1903 for Caroline Rosenberg Kline Galland, a noted Jewish philanthropist, and has historically been called the Kline Galland house. It is one of south Capitol Hill's most significant homes, both architecturally and historically. It is located in an area where most of the homes similar in scale and design have been demolished, leaving it as one of the only reminder of the neighborhood's former character.

    The original owner, Caroline Kline Galland, was one of Seattle's wealthiest citizens at the turn of the century primarily due to property she owned in the central business district. Mrs. Galland is remembered today for her generosity in the service to others. During her lifetime Caroline Galland provided thousands of dollars in food, clothing, medical care, horses and wagons, and financial gifts to the poor. In 1907, she left an estate of $1,500,000. Using the CPI Index, this equals $39,000,000 in 2014. Using the relative share of GDP, which measures relative wealth at the time, this would equal $761,000,000 in 2014. The principal recipient was the Caroline Kline Galland Home for the Aged and Feeble Poor which was established in accordance with the terms of her will for persons of the Jewish faith and members of the Society of Universal Religion. Today operates as the Caroline Kline Galland House. Existing charitable organizations of other creeds also recieved bequests.

    Caroline Rosenberg was born in Bavaria, Germany in 1841, and was first married to Louis Kline, head of a pioneer clothing firm in Seattle, who died in 1892. Mrs. Kline then married Bonham Galland, a retired merchant of San Francisco, the following year.

    In 1903, she commissioned architect Max Umbrecht to design her Seattle home, where she resided until her death on February 14, 1907.

    Max Umbrecht (1872-1955) was born in Syracuse, New York. His immigrant grandfather was a bridge builder and his father a building contractor. Umbrecht learned architectural design through the apprentice system with the firm of Merritt and Randall in New York City. His work was characterized by a preference for formal detail and balance, and a use of large openings for maximum lighting. Umbrecht came to Seattle around 1900, concentrating his practice on private residences, including the one previously used by Antioch College West at 1729 - 17th Avenue, and the John W. Clise House, at Marymoor Park in Redmond . He returned to Syracuse in 1922 and was active in architecture until his death.

  • Preservation & Designation OverviewThe Gaffney House is currently listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Caroline Kline Galland House (Ref. # 80004002). It was listed on

    Jan.8, 1980. It is also listed in the Survey of Historic Locations by the Washington State Dept. of Archaeology & History (Ref. # 48008).It is likely that when it is reviewed by the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board, it may receive landmark status.

    Designation ProcessNomination for City of Seattle landmark status may be submitted by any person or group to the City Historic Preservation Officer. The nomination will be considered by the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board at a public meeting. A second public meeting will be scheduled within 30 to 60 days.

    Controls and Incentives AgreementsIf the Board designates a property, a Controls and Incentives Agreement for the landmark is negotiated by the Board staff with the property owner. Controls define those features of the landmark to be preserved and outline the Certificate of Approval process for changes to those features. Incentives may include, but are not limited to, zoning variances, building code exceptions, and financial incentives.
