Architecture - Alfred Faber Galleries

The M. G. Nease House : The M. G. Nease House was designed by Alfred Faber for one of the many newly wealthy lumber entrepreneurs in 1908. In form it is an enlarged bungalow with characteristic Craftsman Style detailing. Today the home at 6329 NE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. is the offices of the Portland Community Reinvestment Initiatives, Inc., a non-profit organization dedicated to providing affordable housing opportunities in North and Northeast Portland (see www.pcrihome.org for more details). When PCRI acquired the building it was in marginal condition, with many disruptive alterations having been performed by its prior owners. After 2 years of painstaking rehabilitation, PCRI moved into their new offices in early 2006. The work they did, as shown in these photos is remarkable for the dedication shown to preserving and restoring the architectural details of this once, and now again, grand home.
