Amazing cast concrete block duplex in Portland OR


This amazing photo of a not quite complete cast concrete block duplex was located at 407 Benton St. It was near the corner of Benton and Dixon. That entire street (just 8 blocks long) along with Dixon and others was ripped out to build the Colosseum along with other industrial "improvements".

Advance School in 1911 with creepy double image.

Unsure of the location of this school building but check out that double negative of a man's face!!! Very creepy!

Progression of a wonderful craftsman home in it's first few years






The following images are of a home built by the Hillis family. Possibly Van Nuys, California. These photos detail construction in the middle of nowhere to a leafy paradise from 1916 to 1922. Nice hand tinted images.
