- Note
- "The house completed for Portland banker and art collector Charles Francis Adams in 1904 is a red brick-faced Georgian Colonial version of the ubiquitous, two-story hip -roofed and dormered box type which was featured in early 20th century house plan books with a variety of dominent stylistic characteristics, ranging from Mission to Colonial Revival Styles. No mere pattern book inspiration, however, the Adams House was designed by Portland's leading architects of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, William M. Whidden and Ion Lewis. In fact, the house completes a row of Whidden and Lewis residences on the block fronting NW Flanders Street between 23rd and 24th Avenues in the fashionable Nob Hill District. The other houses, including the neighboring Bates-Seller and Trevett-Nunn Houses, previously entered into the National Register, are finished with weatherboards in the Colonial Revival Style."
