A Major named Edward Bowes, who was made famous by the Original Amateur Hour, and some other financiers from San Francisco dreamed of a residential community that would be an ideal location to raise a family and enjoy life in 1907. In order to keep their dream alive, they bought some land to the west of Tacoma and called the location Regents Park. Their influence is reflected in their value of higher education and the streets, which are named after their California background.

Regent Park offered a strong sense of community and quiet living with its aesthetically designed, and curved sewers, sidewalks, and streets. In 1919, on Farallone Avenue, the first store was opened. In 1923, the Fircrest Golf Club was established.

The year 1925 brought the incorporation of Fircrest as a town. The population of the small community was 306 people. The new Town of Fircrest seemed to reenergize the community. Their incorporation gave provided them with the control and the financial stability to develop and repair their services and infrastructure.

Fircrest has continually preserved its sense of community, throughout the years. Hot meals and milk were provided to needy school children during the Great Depression.

The year 1990 brought the status of Fircrest to that of a city, having grown in population and size. In order to provide financial stability and even out the boundaries the surrounding properties were annexed during the next the years.
