Description
Picture caption: Handsome New Home on Willamette Heights. Residence of T. T. Strain. Thirty Second and Thurman Streets. The accompanying illustrations show exterior and interior views of the new home of T. T. Strain, chief clerk in the office of F. H. Fogarty, assistant general freight agent of the Northern Pacific. This residence is typical of a large number of others that are now under construction in Portland. These houses, well-built, modern in architecture and supplied with the latest conveniences, are ornaments to the city. Mr. Strain's residence is located at Thirty-second and Thurman streets on the side hill just above the Exposition grounds. A beautiful panorama spreads before it of the Fair, Guild's Lake and the Willamette with the snow-clad peaks rising superbly in the distance. A porch 12x40 feet is the most noticeable feature of this house. There are eight rooms, and the largest, the living room, which is shown in the cut, is 31 feet in length and 36 feet in width….The architect is Edgar M. Lazarus.
