This home, dating to the early 1880s, was originally located around the corner at 517 Madison Street and was moved here in 1906 for the construction of the Stewart Hotel. According to Seattle directories from the mid-1880s, which didn't use addresses for most residences, this was likely the Seattle home of Captain Warren Gove (1816-1892), an early pioneer of Steilacoom and the first American to pilot a steam boat on Puget Sound between Olympia and Seattle in 1853. The house was demolished in 1960 for a parking lot and the current Renaissance Hotel was built on the site in 1983.
