IN THE GALLERIES

On exhibit through January 2017 Come see the work of 13 different American builders hardware manufacturers from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Exhibits and Collections Committee members Joanne Carlson and Valerie Bagnas co-curated the selection to provide an overview of the many types of hardware found in the Bosco-Milligan collections. Artifacts include drawer pulls, escutcheon plates, sash lifts, hinges and doorknobs – in wrought bronze, brass, nickel, glass, and more.

This exhibit is an outgrowth of hardware collections cataloguing and re-housing work funded by an Oregon Museum Grant in 2013 and 2014. We thank board member and historian Jackie Peterson-Loomis for her support of label production, and curator Doug Magedanz and volunteer Philip Austin for their assistance in mounting the exhibit.

Several of the items on display were donated to the AHC by the late Maud Eastwood, nationally-recognized historic hardware scholar and author. We mount the exhibit in memory of her many years of sharing her expertise with the AHC. She assisted greatly in exhibit development and design, and cataloguing and organizing thousands of artifacts, and we remain grateful for her steadfast commitment, encouragement, and friendship.

GALLERY EXHIBIT

The Industry and Artistry of Portland Windows On exhibit through November 5, 2016 Meyer Memorial Trust Gallery This exciting exhibit explores the construction and design of windows throughout history with an emphasis on local companies, artisans, and products. Industry and Artistry focuses on the years 1880 to 1930 when art glass and millwork manufacturing were at their heights in Portland and the United States. Many of the windows on display, including some beautiful stained glass, were salvaged by our founders, Jerry Bosco and Ben Milligan, from buildings demolished in the 1960s and 1970s.

DIRECTOR’S COLUMN As the new Executive Director of the Bosco-Milligan Foundation and the Architectural Heritage Center, I’ve spent the past month learning all I can about the organization and having great conversations with many people—our board, advisory board, and staff, members and volunteers, and local, state, and national colleagues and partners—about our organization’s role in preserving Portland’s historic architecture. As an historian, I’ve been especially interested in spending time with the archival documents from our organization’s early history, after Jerry Bosco’s and Ben Milligan’s generous bequest in 1987 of the West’s Block Building and their architectural artifact collection for the establishment of an architecture center. As with the founding of any new institution, the conversations among the board focused on developing and articulating the mission, impact, and great potential of this nascent organization. The new center, with a focus on the buildings of Portland and the Paci c Northwest, was envisioned to be like none other west of the Mississippi. It would be dedicated to serving both professionals in architecture and the general public, de ned to encompass a broad audience of historic home owners, children, students, and really anyone with an interest in historic buildings. Ideas for a name for this new place were brainstormed: institute, school, and presentation center were considered in conjunction with the ideas of education, interpretation, resource, and heritage. A few terms were eliminated, such as western (“too cowboy”) as well as names with unfortunate acronyms (“Saving Our Buildings” was out), until the board arrived at the Architectural Heritage Center. While we continue to operate our space in West’s Block under this name, all of the ideas generated in these early discussions were, and still are, highly relevant. They aptly express our work today to educate and create knowledge about Portland’s built environment, offer interpretive programs, and serve as a resource and advocate for the city’s rich architectural heritage. According to the founding documents, the framework for the Architectural Heritage Center was to be a place both to “learn” and to “practice” historic preservation. This pairing of knowledge and activity has translated over the years to our distinctive programs that engender research, discussion, and ideas about our architectural heritage, and to our advocacy efforts that turn this learning into action on behalf of Portland’s built environment. What’s also palpable in these archival documents is that this was a time, in the late 1980s and early 1990s, of serious re ection, great optimism, and spirited conversations among our founders about the creation and mission of a new architecture center. Now, in 2016, we have the opportunity, as we did almost three decades ago, to think again about the exciting new possibilities for the Bosco-Milligan Foundation and the Architectural Heritage Center and to ask ourselves similar questions about the mission and program of the organization. It’s an inspiring time, as we build on the past accomplishments of our founders and past leaders, many of whom continue to support the organization today, for which we are most grateful. It’s also both an exciting and challenging time for Portland, as it is for many cities across the country. As we re ect upon our work at the Architectural Heritage Center, we will think about how we can support our architectural heritage in the context of our changing city. I look forward to sharing our updates with you and to our future conversations about our work together.

Portland Heights and Vista Avenue Tour Saturday, October 15, 2016 at 10:00 am This tour explores Portland Heights, a mostly residential Southwest Portland neighborhood with Vista Avenue running through its center. It was once a very difficult area to build in, or even get to, before it became a popular residential district as transportation options increased during the late 19th century. Today the mixture of homes, ranging in style from Colonial Revival to Art Deco, is a veritable “Who’s Who” of Portland architects and their masterworks. On this tour you’ll see homes designed by the likes of A. E. Doyle, Emil Schacht, Edgar Lazarus and Morris Whitehouse. Be advised that this is a fairly strenuous walk.

Kerns Tour Sunday, October 16, 2016 at 11:00 am

New! Downtown Milwaukie Walking Tour Saturday, October 1, 2016 at 10:00 am With many buildings dating from the early- to mid-twentieth century, downtown Milwaukie offers an interesting variety of architecture, including the 1930s “modern” City Hall. We hope you’ll join us for this exciting new tour that explores the heart (and history) of Portland’s oldest suburb, from its beginnings as a shipping port to post-World War II growth and experimentation.

With the Ban eld Freeway to the north, East Burnside to the south, and Sandy Boulevard cutting right through its center, the Kerns neighborhood offers a unique slice of inner east-side Portland. This tour focuses on the variety of development that occurred between two historic streetcar lines. You’ll see the last standing trolley barn from Portland’s rst generation of street railways, a wide assortment of single and multi-family housing, plus some surprising and historic examples of industrial and educational buildings.

The Orange MAX Line is now available from Portland and is highly recommended.

Portland’s Mid-Town and West End: Icons, Hidden Gems and Historic Preservation Sunday, October 2, 2016 11:00 am Explore downtown between the South Park Blocks and I-405 – an area lled with iconic buildings as well as numerous lesser-known architectural gems. You’ll see historic apartment houses, storefronts, cultural and religious buildings, and the remnants of what was once a thriving residential area, while also gaining an understanding of the impacts of development on historic preservation efforts. For those driving to the tour, consider parking near SW 12th and Main as this is close to the tour’s end point.

The History, Development, and In uence of the Prairie School of Architecture

The Apartment Building in Portland, 1900-1930: An Introductory Survey

Updated and Revised!

Encore Presentation

Saturday, October 29, 2016 10:00 am – 11:30 am

Saturday, November 5, 2016 10:00 am – 11:30 am

Members: $12

General Public: $20

The Prairie School was as much an aesthetic movement as an architectural style. Promoting the Arts and Crafts values of simplicity, utility, and beauty, Prairie School style began in the Midwest and spread across the U.S., in uencing a generation of architects around the world. This newly revised and updated presentation examines the roots and development of the Prairie School style – from its ties to the likes of Louis Sullivan and, of course, Frank Lloyd Wright, to several other architects, including some that practiced here on the West Coast. You’ll come away from this lecture with a broader understanding of this important architectural style and be able to recognize Prairie in uences in Portland neighborhoods like Irvington. Before moving to Portland, presenter and AHC volunteer Jim Varner lived in Oak Park, Illinois and served as an interpreter at the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio for eight years. Pre-registration is strongly suggested – visit us online at www. VisitAHC.org or use the enclosed registration form.

In 1904, the category “apartment houses” rst appeared in the Portland City Directory. While only four buildings were listed, the new term signi ed the emergence of a new building type, one that differed from the boarding houses, hotels, and other multi-dwelling units of the time. Within a few years, Portland’s explosive growth pushed this new form of housing to be an integral part of the city’s urban landscape. By 1910, 90 apartment houses were advertised in the directory, and by 1930 there were 750! Even so, the rise of the apartment building remains a less studied part of Portland’s architectural history.

Prairie School lecture sponsored by: WILLCO

This presentation by Ed Teague is an introduction to the history of Portland’s apartment buildings from the early 20th century to the Depression Era. Ed will explore the factors that in uenced the evolution of this building type, such as improvements in materials, advances in construction and transportation systems, and the growth of the real estate industry. Moreover, the presentation will illustrate the skill and versatility of Portland’s leading architects as they expanded their design portfolios to include a new kind of housing. Ed Teague is the head of the Architecture & Allied Arts Library at the University of Oregon. Pre-registration is strongly suggested – visit us online at www. VisitAHC.org or use the enclosed registration form.

New! The Buildings Behind the Buildings: In uences on Landmark Portland Architecture Saturday, December 3, 2016 10:00 am – 11:30 am Members: $12

Portland put itself on the map in 1905 when it staged the rst world’s fair on the West Coast. The Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition transformed the stagnant waters of Guilds Lake with dozens of exhibit buildings and amusement arcades. The Forestry Building was the world’s largest “log cabin” and the U.S. government pavilion was a cross between a railroad station and a Mexican cathedral. Hundreds of thousands of visitors arrived in the city, crowding the streets and hotels and launching Portland into the twentieth century. Please join us as Dr. Carl Abbott, Professor Emeritus of Urban Studies and Planning at Portland State University (and longtime AHC member), shares with us the story of the Expo and its impact on Portland. Abbott is the author of numerous books on urban history, including several about Portland. Pre-registration is strongly suggested – visit us online at www. VisitAHC.org or use the enclosed registration form.

General Public: $20

Portland’s plethora of landmark buildings weren’t designed in a vacuum. In this lecture, Thomas Hubka will provide an overview of some of our most notable Portland buildings and the architects and architectural styles that in uenced their designs. You’ll learn about buildings such as the Benson Hotel, designed by architect A. E. Doyle, but in a manner that was very similar to a hotel in Chicago. Doyle’s beloved U.S. National Bank pays homage to a bank building in New York City. Noted architects, like Henry Hobson Richardson, also in uenced Portland architecture from the earliest days. A number of downtown buildings show how Richardson’s designs had made their way to the West Coast by the early 1890s. And did you know we have a bank from the 1910s that was truly designed to look like a classical Greek temple? You’ll learn about these buildings and more as Professor Hubka helps us connect the dots between our architectural heritage and the people and buildings that in uenced their design. Hubka has taught history courses at professional schools of architecture for over thirty years, including most recently at Portland State University, the University of Oregon, and Portland Community College.

If Arts & Crafts Walls Could Talk: Paper, Paint, or Stencil? Saturday, December 10, 2016 10:00 am – 11:30 am Members: $12

Had Socrates met William Morris, he might have opined “The unexamined wall is not worth living with…” Lewis and Clark lecture sponsored by: Craftsman Design and Renovation

Arts and Crafts Walls lecture sponsored by: Kraft Custom Construction

Far from being silent witnesses to the life of a home’s occupants, walls played a crucial – and often overlooked – role in the Arts & Crafts-era interior. Whether painted, stenciled, fabric-covered or wallpapered, a room’s surfaces were no less an expression of personal taste or artistic ideals than the famous furniture and decorative objects to which they played backdrop. In this highly visual presentation full of rare period images and examples, you’ll discover the wide range of beautiful wall and ceiling treatments that could be the real scene-stealers in early 20th century homes. Bo Sullivan is the owner and founder of Arcalus Period Design, an old-house consulting resource, and Bolling & Co., purveyors of rare antique wallpapers.

EDUCATION PROGRAM—PANEL DISCUSSION

Skidmore, Owings & Merrill: An International Firm, A Very Local Impact Saturday, November 19, 2016 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

Perhaps no other architectural rm shaped Portland in the decades after World War II more than Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM). Upon taking over the offices of Pietro Belluschi in the early 1950s, SOM took Portland architecture in a whole new direction – with sleek modern office buildings such as the Standard Plaza (1963) and later the U.S. Bancorp Tower (1983), among others. They were also the rm behind our world famous Veterans Memorial Coliseum (1960), which was recently designated a National Treasure by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Brian Libby writes about Portland Architecture for his Portland Architecture blog. He has also been at the forefront of efforts to save the Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Randy Gragg is the Executive Director of the University of Oregon’s John Yeon Center for Architecture and the Landscape and a longtime Portland area architecture critic. Pre-registration is strongly suggested – visit us online at www. VisitAHC.org or use the enclosed registration form.

ART EXHIBITS

Bridges of Portland

Old Portland Celebrating the sixth anniversary of Illustrated Playing Cards this October, local artist Aaron Trotter will release a new deck of cards focusing on the City of Roses. The new series of 52 drawings, entitled Old Portland, will document the city’s oldest buildings in pen and ink on paper. The collection will be on exhibit at the Architectural Heritage Center October 7 through November 30.  Commemorating the Italianate style of Portland’s last remaining cast-iron buildings, the sketches highlight a fading view of the city. As a collection, the drawings stand as a call to action against the rapid loss of the historical character of commercial districts and neighborhoods. In support of the Architectural Heritage Center’s mission to “inspire people to conserve the art, craft, and context of historic buildings and places,” Trotter wants his work to remind Portlanders to take an interest in preservation and appreciate the very ne buildings that remain intact. An opening reception for Old Portland will be held at the Architectural Heritage Center on First Friday, October 7, from 6-8 p.m. Originals, prints, postcards, and playing cards will be for sale. First Friday, November 4th, there will be an Artist Talk from 6-7 p.m. followed by the opening reception for an exhibition of the original 2010 Portland drawings. 

Through Christopher Mooney’s work as a painter of Oregon’s transportation architecture, he has established a niche in the art community as an artist contributing to the visual documentation of urban landmarks. He creates paintings of bridges from unusual points of view, giving them a dramatic perspective, which renders them both realistic and abstract at the same time. Light plays an important role, illuminating the structure, casting shadows, and encouraging the viewer to see the bridges in that new way. Mooney focuses on gaining access to the bridges of Portland and having the time to observe to paint and createlarge-scale realistic paintings, approximately 36” x 48”, from photographic references, using grids, or a projector, a time honored method and technique still used today since the Renaissance period. Mooney’s works will be on exhibit December 2 through January 21, with a First Friday opening on December 2 from 6-8 p.m.

ON EXHIBIT, CLOSING SOON

Ending Soon! Early Works of William H. Fletcher, Architect On exhibit through October 1st In 1956, William Fletcher established an office in a house near downtown Portland, sharing the space with several other young architects. So began the rm which is now FFA Architecture and Interiors, Inc. As we celebrate 60 years of design excellence, we continue to honor the values Bill built upon. FFA is pleased to present prints of a collection of Bill’s early hand-drawings, many of which illustrate how, along with designers such as John Yeon and Pietro Belluschi, Bill helped shape a regional Northwest vernacular style of architecture using indigenous materials and forms echoing the landscape and traditional building types.

FROM THE ADVOCACY COMMITTEE

Historic Treasures, the State of Oregon and Owner Consent: Two Contradictory Moves by Steve Dotterer In the last few months, we have had two stories about the State and historic treasures. The rst is the good news about the Oregon Supreme Court’s decision in Lake Oswego’s Carman House case. The proposed rewrite of the Goal 5 Administrative Rules is all bad news, and has gotten little coverage. It was still an unfolding story at press time, so there is still time to act. The issue, however, needs your attention now. Carman House Decision: The Supreme Court decision on the Carman House and the owner consent law was all to the good for historic treasures. Oregon’s version of owner consent, adopted in 1995 and unique to the state, allows the owner of an historically-designated property to object to the designation, and therefore to remove the possibility of any local government protectionsforlocally-designatedproperties.TheSupremeCourt decision says that “owner consent” applies only to the owner at the time of designation. This narrow interpretation overturns a recent Lake Oswego City Council decision to remove the Carman House from their local landmark register. That decision was appealed by The Lake Oswego Preservation Society with the assistance of attorney Carrie Richter, and amicus curiae partners such as the AHC and Restore Oregon. The decision is lengthy and can be found in full (and in summary) at http://law.justia. com/cases/oregon/supreme-court/2016/s063048.html. Some policy questions remain, such as how this applies to historic districts, but the Supreme Court and all the Appellants and Friends of the Court deserve our thanks. The Goal 5 Administrative Rules: Oregon’s Land Conservation and Development Commission recently proposed to rewrite the Administrative Rules for Goal 5 Historic Resources. Interestingly, the overall Goal 5 Rules apply to natural, scenic and historic resources. The rules tell local governments what they need to do to meet the goals of Oregon’s Land Use Planning requirements. The Commission, which intended to make changes just before the Carman House decision was announced, is proposing a very quick process with minimal public discussion. This is despite the fact that the staff proposal would turn the Administrative Rules upside down (according to staff, at the request of the Governor’s Office). The current rules, written shortly after the owner consent law was adopted, recognize that sites on the National Register are landmarks of statewide signi cance that should receive the most protection. The staff-proposed new rules would limit the protections for National Register properties to the 120-day delay period. Further protections, like the possibility of demolition denial, would only apply to locally-designated landmarks. This means that a property

owner could apply for the National Register, and the potential of federal and local tax incentives, and refuse to consent to local designation. Owners could get the bene ts without the protections of historic designation. This is truly upside down planning. While current designations would stay as they are today, all new designations for individual buildings and historic districts would follow these new rules. Luckily, these rules are only a draft for consideration by a citizens committee in the next few months. Use this link to learn how to participate in the process: http://www.oregon.gov/LCD/ Pages/Goal5HistoricResourceRulemaking.aspx tells you how to participate in the process. Therefore, each of us should: •

rst, thank the Supreme Court and those involved in the Carman House case for their thoughtful and prolonged efforts to improve historic preservation in Oregon;

• second, raise a ruckus with the state’s rewrite of the Goal 5 administrative rules for historic resources; and •

nally, think long and hard about the Owner Consent Law itself—it has pretty much put a stop to local actions to identify and protect historic resources--isn’t it about time to change this law?

Old House Revival Tour All contact information is con dential—please include your email address!

(please circle one)

Saturday, April 15, 2017 Our annual Old House Revival Tour demonstrates that older homes can retain original character and materials while still meeting the needs of a 21st century lifestyle. We encourage homeowners to retain or re-install period or period-appropriate materials and features, but also understand that is not always possible. This tour, therefore, offers a fascinating variety of approaches ranging from DIY restorations and the maintenance of original details to complete architect or general contractor-led house renovations or additions. Nominate your favorite home improvement on the AHC website: www.visitAHC.org.

VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION AND OPPORTUNITIES

Change is coming to the AHC! Not only have we added new staff members, we are also tweaking the format for our newsletter a bit – all for the better, we hope. Rather than list each volunteer who has helped over the past few months, I’ll plan to focus on a speci c group of volunteers each time. This will start with the winter newsletter. Your input is most welcome, so let me know what you think of the changes. We thank you all for your support. Don’t forget, auction time is drawing near and we need your help to make it a success. Volunteers are most welcome and you need not be an auction pro to make a difference. Please join us. The big day is October 8th and there is something for everyone. If you’d like to volunteer your time, please contact Ita Lindquist, Volunteer & Rentals Manager, [email protected] or 503-231-7264. New volunteer opportunities are also listed in the enewsletter.
