- 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.

- Description
- National Register of Historic Places (Listed, 2015), The Otto and Verdell Rutherford House, a modest bungalow that served as a family home and support center for civil rights causes for more than half a century, is believed to be the first historic property in Oregon listed primarily for its association with the Civil Rights Movement. It was home to three generations of the Rutherford family, each of which was active in civil rights in Portland. William Rutherford and his brother Henry moved to Portland from Columbia, South Carolina in 1897 to work as barbers in the prestigious Portland Hotel. In 1923 William moved into the 1905 house on Shaver Street in the King neighborhood of Albina. Here William and his wife Lottie raised their four children, including their third son Otto, instilling in them a love of community and respect for education and hard work. Otto and Verdell moved back into the family home upon their marriage in 1936 and began their life of activism. A high point in their careers occurred in 1953, when Oregon’s Public Accommodations Act, under the sponsorship of then Representative Mark O. Hatfield, was passed. This landmark legislation occurred when Otto Rutherford was president of the Portland Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and Verdell was secretary, positions they held for several years. The Rutherford house, where Otto and Verdell raised their three children, was the location of much organizing for civil rights in the 1940s and 1950s, as well as being the first home of the NAACP Credit Union. In later years, the Rutherfords worked arduously to document the history of the African American community in Portland. This collection, donated by daughter Charlotte Rutherford, is now housed in Portland State University’s Special Collections & University Archives. The Rutherfords also participated as community historians in the Bosco-Milligan Foundation’s inventory of African American properties in Portland in the late 1990s. Otto died in 2000 and Verdell followed shortly thereafter, in 2001. The house is still held by the family. Source: Oregon State Historic Preservation Office.

- Description
- National Register of Historic Places (Listed, 2015), The Otto and Verdell Rutherford House, a modest bungalow that served as a family home and support center for civil rights causes for more than half a century, is believed to be the first historic property in Oregon listed primarily for its association with the Civil Rights Movement. It was home to three generations of the Rutherford family, each of which was active in civil rights in Portland. William Rutherford and his brother Henry moved to Portland from Columbia, South Carolina in 1897 to work as barbers in the prestigious Portland Hotel. In 1923 William moved into the 1905 house on Shaver Street in the King neighborhood of Albina. Here William and his wife Lottie raised their four children, including their third son Otto, instilling in them a love of community and respect for education and hard work. Otto and Verdell moved back into the family home upon their marriage in 1936 and began their life of activism. A high point in their careers occurred in 1953, when Oregon’s Public Accommodations Act, under the sponsorship of then Representative Mark O. Hatfield, was passed. This landmark legislation occurred when Otto Rutherford was president of the Portland Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and Verdell was secretary, positions they held for several years. The Rutherford house, where Otto and Verdell raised their three children, was the location of much organizing for civil rights in the 1940s and 1950s, as well as being the first home of the NAACP Credit Union. In later years, the Rutherfords worked arduously to document the history of the African American community in Portland. This collection, donated by daughter Charlotte Rutherford, is now housed in Portland State University’s Special Collections & University Archives.
