Harry White was born in 1877. As a young man he studied at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, earning a bachelor of science in
architecture in 1899. In the same year, White joined the firm of McKim, Mead
& White, working as a draftsman. It was at this firm that he met Walter R.
Wilder, with whom he would form a partnership in 1906.
The architectural firm of Wilder and White had an office in New York
City and worked mainly on the east coast. The firm designed and constructed
schools, private residences, and other public and private buildings, primarily
in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Vermont. In 1912, the firm entered
and won a competition to design a new capitol building for the state of
Washington. Wilder and White designed the capitol campus and oversaw the
construction of the Temple of Justice, the Insurance Building, and the
Legislative Building. The partnership was dissolved in 1930 and White set up an
independent practice. Later in his life, he acted as an architectural
consultant for the architectural firm of York & Sawyer. White remained
active until his death in 1966.
The photographs and designs within this collection can be grouped in
two distinct yet interrelated parts. One component of the collection consists
of materials that chronicle the Washington State Capitol Group Competition of
1912 and document the construction of the capitol buildings through 1926. Also
included are photographs and designs of other state capitol buildings
throughout the United States which were probably used to provide the architects
with design ideas.
The other portion of the collection includes plans and photographs of
Wilder and White architectural projects, including schools, public buildings,
and private residences. Most of these designs were constructed in the eastern
United States, primarily in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Vermont
during the end of the 19th century and the early years of the 20th century. Box
5 contains oversized photographs.
Collection is open to the public.
Drawings by Wilder and White and by Harry K. White are available in
Architectural Drawings (M250, folder 4, and HA30, boxes 1-7) in the
repository.
Olympia was designated as the seat of government for Washington
Territory in 1854. The first capitol building was constructed two years later
on a twelve-acre parcel of land that was donated by the founder of Olympia,
Edmund Sylvester. The simple frame building served as the territorial and state
capitol until 1903, fourteen years after Washington was admitted to statehood.
Steps toward erecting a permanent capitol building were taken in 1893, after
$500,000 had been appropriated for this purpose, and a nation-wide design
competition was announced. The winner of the competition was Ernest Flagg, an
architect from New York, and from his designs the foundations of the new
capitol building were laid. The construction was soon halted, however, by
financial and political complications. Because of these difficulties, Governor
John R. Rogers decided to abandon the just completed foundation, opting instead
to purchase the Thurston County Courthouse, which would serve as the state
capitol from 1903 to 1928.
By 1909, the capitol building had become so congested that the
legislature authorized the completion of the Flagg designs, but no
appropriation was ever made. In 1911, the legislature passed an act that would
provide for a second national design competition. This time, however, the plan
called for a group scheme of capitol buildings and in addition, a plan for the
first unit of the group to be built, the Temple of Justice. An appropriation of
$300,000 was provided for this project. The State Capitol Commission,
consisting of Governor Hay, the Auditor, the Commissioner of Public Lands, the
Tax Commissioner, and three citizens appointed by the governor was formed.
Charles Bebb, a Seattle architect, served as the commission's advisor and took
part in judging the thirty-seven competition entries.
The winning entry was submitted by Wilder and White from New York, and
both their group plan and their design for the Temple of Justice building were
accepted. The Wilder and White capitol plan was the first in the United States
to include a group of buildings. The original plan consisted of six buildings,
five of which would be symmetrically arranged around the Legislative Building.
Access to the capitol complex would be from the north along Capitol Lake,
beginning at the downtown train depot. The Olmsted Brothers of Brookline,
Massachusetts, were to design a landscaping plan which would best complement
the placement of the buildings. Wilder and White presented the committee with a
revised proposal in 1912 and the construction on the Temple of Justice
began.
The election of a new governor in 1913, Governor Ernest Lister, halted
construction on the other buildings included in the project. Lister, who had
run his election campaign on a platform which emphasized prudent spending for
state affairs, was convinced of the extravagance of the 1912 group plan and
proposed his own group plan design. For the rest of the decade, the State
Capitol Commission, the legislature, the state architects, and the press
grappled with this issue. However, the death of Lister in 1919 resulted in the
election of a new governor, Louis F. Hart, and the commission decided to return
to the Wilder and White 1912 revised plan. The construction was resumed.
Office Building A (now the Insurance Building) was erected in 1920, as
was the capitol campus power and heating plant facility. Construction for the
Legislative Building (which was built over the remnants of the original Flagg
foundation) began in 1922 and continued until 1928. The Highway Building was
completed in 1934, followed by the Public Lands-Social Security Building in
1937. The final building of the Wilder and White group plan was to be located
west of the Legislative Building but the building was never erected. An
earthquake in 1949 dismantled the lantern on the dome of the Legislative
Building, and in 1965, damage from another earthquake required that a complex
and expensive program of earthquake stabilization be implemented. The
earthquake of 2001 also damaged the capitol buildings.
Gift of Leavitt White.
