[5] The building served as a home for himself, Champ Clark (Speaker of the House from 1911-1919, during Teddy Roosevelt’s Presidency), a brother known only as "the artist", and a sister.
Originally spanning three row houses, the residence was connected through the basement and main floor and contained separate sleeping quarters for each brother upstairs.
Today, the property consists of more than 100 rooms of varying architectural, artistic and design periods with hand-painted ceilings, original Tiffany stained glass windows, a two-story Log Cabin, and an Art Deco penthouse.
[9] The unique décor and architecture of the building has been chronicled in books including Four Blind Mice by James Patterson, Afterburn by Zane[10] and in the young adult series Gilda Joyce: The Dead Drop by Jennifer Allison.
