- Description
- Picture caption: O. M. Dezendorf's apartment-house, which is now under construction on the east side of Sixteenth street, between Salmon and Taylor, representative of buildings of this class of moderate cost, many of which are being erected in Portland. It was designed by Claussen & Claussen architects and a four-story and basement brick structure, 60 by 100 feet. It will contain four five-room apartments on each of the upper floors and three in the basement, or 19 in all. The buildings will be equipped with automatic electric elevator, four electric dumb waiters and the usual modern conveniences of apartment-house construction. There will be an ornamental iron balcony for each apartment, built-in furniture and disappearing beds. The entrance will be of carved stone and the vestibule of marble. The cost will be about 50,000. The building is currently known as the Raintree Apartments (2016).
