Charles and ElVera Thomsen built this brick Tudor home on NE 170th Street in 1927 while he was still president of Centennial Flouring Mill. The couple willed the house and grounds, called Wildcliffe, to the Cerebral Palsy Association, later the Easter Seal Society, when they died.

    Hi,
    My parents were caretakers for this property in the mid_late 90s and I was actually born in the house! I had contacted Anne Marie Kreidler, who has previosuly shown the property and knew my parents. I had called her in hopes that I could tour the grounds, and she said she would schedule something but didn’t end up returning my call.
    I would love the opportunity to visit the manor, as I have never been since my parents moved us out when I was a baby. Please let me know if there is anyone I can get into contact with to make that happens.
    Sincerely,
    Molly Van Hoy

      Hi Molly – we have been unable to get any responses related to the property either. Such a shame. So interesting that you were born there. Do you have any photos or rememberances you’d like to share. If so, please reach out to khsarchives@gmail.com
