Chauncey B. Seaton (March 14, 1848 - December 2, 1896) was an architect in the U.S.[1][2] He was born near
Bucyrus, Ohio, studied at
Wooster University and then at a technical school in Chicago.
After the
Spokane Fire of 1889, Chauncey B. Seaton designed the
Spokane-Review building with an irregular shape to fit the shape of the lot. He left Spokane before the Spokesman-Review building was completed. It housed both the Spokesman-Review and the
Spokane Daily Chronicle, both owned by Cowles of the
Cowles Company, until the Daily Chronicle Building was completed next door in 1928.[5]
He died December 2, 1896, after a long period of illness.[6]
