Nice, warm summer stroll through downtown Milwaukie last night. The Milwaukie Masonic Temple is a 20th Century Gothic Revival building built in the 1920s. It's a fantastic, unique building.
Estate sales = free historic home tours. 😄A real beaut in Eastmoreland over the weekend
Empty house on SE Division. Not long for this world (according to the now-gone public notices)? #oldhome #oldhomes #archi_ologie #portlandarchitecture
Rose Festival Parade float, 1976. Check out the Benjamin Franklin Federal Savings and Loan sign in the background. #portlandhistory #portlandrosefestival #downtownportland
Then/Now(ish): The Empire Building in Pendleton, built in the early 1900s, described as Italianate and listed on the US National Register of Historic Places.
Yesterday evening turned out to be nice, so a walk was in order. Some cool houses tucked between Holgate and Foster.
