Historic Name: NAS Seattle Building 331 - Married Officers Quarters "B" Common Name:
Style: Colonial - Colonial Revival Neighborhood:
Built By: Year Built: 1939
 
Significance
Built in 1939 to house married, commissioned officers, Building 331 (one of three similar houses) is typical of the style of residences popular at the time (Colonial Revival). This row of houses would have fit in a residential neighborhood. All military bases from earlier eras contained senior commissioned officers’ quarters, which set them apart from more junior officers and enlisted personnel.
 
Appearance
This, two-story, Colonial Revival–style house is flanked by two similar buildings, at the south end of the district. The trio lines the east side of 62nd Avenue NE, forming a slightly curving arc north to south. Rectangular in plan, the house’s main entrance is on the west side, from 62nd Avenue NE. A poured concrete foundation supports a wooden frame clad with brick and wood siding, all capped by a hip roof. Windows are original, multi-lite, double-hung wood sash or multi-lite fixed.
