The Doctors’ House, a Glendale landmark, is named for the three prominent physicians Dr. G.V. Bogue, Dr. D.W. Hunt, and Dr. A.L. Bryant, and for Dr. L.H. Hurtt, a chemist, who made it their home. One of the few remaining residences of Queen Anne Eastlake style architecture in Glendale, it originally stood on the northwest corner of Wilson and Belmont. After a permit for its demolition was issued in 1979, Councilman John F. Day initiated a successful rescue effort. The Glendale Historical Society then organized to assume responsibility, moved the house to this site in 1980, and began a painstaking restoration with the assistance of numerous Glendale organizations, businesses, and concerned individuals. The resulting museum became a unique community asset, offering a looking glass into a way of life lost in time but preserved in fond memory.
