The Heath House is one of the earliest residential sections to be platted and developed north of the Spokane River. Situated on the north side of the graceful tree-lined Mission Avenue, the home is a simplified square, two-story, wood-frame Queen Anne with a one-and-a-half story back extension. The home was constructed for Sylvester Heath, a man who made significant contributions to early Spokane. Heath is credited for building the Heath Block in 1890 which served as a major contribution to downtown building following the fire of 1889. The Heath Library was also donated to the City of Spokane and represents one of several benevolent efforts.
