The Elegant and Historic Lord Mansion

The elegant Lord Mansion, located in the historic South Capitol Neighborhood, is one of Olympia's few genuine mansions.

Lord Mansion was built in 1923 for banker Clarence J. Lord and his wife, Elizabeth. Lord served as Olympia's mayor in 1902-03 and was a supporter of keeping the city of Olympia as the state capital. His wife Elizabeth was a founding member of the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution and was active in many public civic organizations, being remembered for her warm and welcoming home and her generosity to children and students in the community. Daughter Helen was born in 1904 and, one year after graduating from the University of Washington, married bank employee William (Bill) Lucas in 1928.

Lord engaged Olympia architect Joseph Wohleb to design his impressive new home. Wohleb brought a distinct Southwest style to much of his work in south Puget Sound. The Lord Mansion, a Spanish Colonial villa surrounded by lush lawns and evergreen trees, is the grandest of all of Wohleb's stucco-and-tile residential designs. Exterior features include decorative friezes inset in the walls, carved brackets under wide eaves, and an arched formal entry flanked by Doric columns. A matching "coach house" behind the home, complete with chauffeur's quarters upstairs, testifies to C. J. Lord's fondness for large motor cars.
