- Description
- Constructed in 1908, the Charles 0. Sigglin Flats is a fourplex located at the corner of SE 16th Avenue and Alder Street in Portland's Buckman Neighborhood. The surrounding buildings are single-family homes, duplexes, and fourplexes of a similar scale and character. The building is designed in a hybrid style that blends the Craftsman, Shingle, and Colonial Revival styles. At two-and-one-half stories tall, the wood-frame building sits on a concrete foundation, filling almost the entirety of its 50' by 70' lot. It is 7,790 square feet including the basement and attic. The building features a hipped roof with double front-facing gables. The body of the building is clad in lap siding while the gables are clad in shingles. It features a variety of wood window types. The character-defining features of the exterior of the resource include the double gable roof extensions and dormer, the deep front porch and a second-story balcony with Colonial Revival details, the use of lap siding and shingles, the oak front doors, and the wood windows. On the interior, the character-defining features include the floor plan with a longitudinally _oriented living room, dining room, and kitchen with bedrooms at the rear of the use; wood floors, trim, and doors; bannisters with turned pickets and square newel posts; radiators; and a center lightwell. While several alterations have occurred, including in 2013 when the interior was gutted, leaving stud walls as well as piles of trim, some doors, fireplace mantels, and radiators, recent rehabilitation of the building restored and maintained the character-defining features and thus, the building retains a high level of integrity.
