    Gerlinger Hall Preliminary Historic Assessment
    (University of Oregon, 2014-01) Campus Planning, Design and Construction, University of Oregon
    This preliminary assessment identifies and documents the exterior historic features of Gerlinger Hall. The assessment, which was finalized by Campus Planning and Real Estate staff, was made in consultation with the project manager for the upcoming Gerlinger Hall Restoration Project. A preliminary historic window assessment also has been completed for Gerlinger Hall and should be referred to for in-depth information and documentation of the windows. The surveyed areas for this preliminary historic assessment include the building’s facades, gymnasium windows, skylights, out buildings, and laundry room. Understanding the historic significance of Gerlinger Hall is crucial to evaluating and preserving its valuable architectural features. The assessed areas are shown on the Surveyed Areas and Ranking map (p. 5). Each area with potential historic significance is assigned a ranking of primary, secondary, or tertiary. This ranking is based on the level of historic significance (high, medium, or low) and level of integrity, defined as the degree to which the key historic elements are evident today (excellent, good, fair, or poor). Refer to Appendix A for a full description of the ranking methodology.

    McMorran House and Gardens History
    (University of Oregon, 2010-02) Campus Planning, Design and Construction, University of Oregon
    The McMorran House was built for George McMorran in 1925 during a time when Eugene was experiencing its largest building and population boom, in accordance with the designs of Roscoe D. Hemenway, a respected architect and George H. Otten, landscape architect. George McMorran, was a man who greatly influenced the commercial life of Eugene and was also deeply involved in the organization and life of the community. George McMorran sold the house to the University of Oregon in 1941. Every resident thereafter has been a president of the University of Oregon and, therefore, has had a profound impact on the university. Roscoe D. Hemenway, a UO graduate and an acclaimed Portland architect known for his period revival style residential work, designed the McMorran house. The house is an excellent example of the Tudor Revival/Norman Farmhouse-style exemplified by its steeply-pitched, hipped roof; massive chimneys; dominant façade with decorative brickwork; oriel window; and pronounced entryway. The expansive gardens are likely the work of George H. Otten, another UO grad and well-known Oregon landscape architect.

    Straub Hall Interiors Preliminary Historic Assessment
    (University of Oregon, 2011-01) Campus Planning, Design and Construction, University of Oregon
    Straub Hall is identified as a building with secondary historic significance (UO 4.0 Survey of Buildings). This means that it is likely to be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Therefore, it is important to identify historically significant features and consider ways to preserve them. Each interior space with potential historic significance is assigned a ranking of high, medium, or low. In addition, the space’s integrity, defined as the degree to which the key historic elements are evident today, is ranked excellent, good, fair, or poor. Refer to the Appendix D for a description of the ranking methodology.

    Straub Hall Window Condition Assessment
    (University of Oregon, 2011-05) Campus Planning, Design and Construction, University of Oregon
    The scale of Condition used for this survey is as follows: EXCELLENT = only superficial damage (like chipping paint), GOOD = will require some invasive repair to parts, FAIR = will require extensive invasive repair to parts, and POOR = window parts are unsalvagable. Overall, the assessed Straub Hall windows are in GOOD condition. This survey sought to assess all windows in the building, including basement windows and roof windows/skylights. Most of the damage to the windows is superficial. Areas most affected are the brick sills and the exterior wood sill/casings’ paint. In areas that have been without proper paint coverage (mainly the south and west facades), checking of the wood sills has occurred. Unless otherwise noted all window parts and hardware appear to be original. Most windows in the building, excluding select few that correspond with staircases or the like, have be designed to be operable. Some of these windows have since become inoperable for various reasons. Some of these windows are currently considered inoperable but only need new weight cords to be operable. The majority of the windows on the first, second, and third floors are double hung with wood muntins. The basement windows are mostly double casement windows or double hung, both with wood muntins. There are four windows that are double height. These are in the staircases stretching between the third and fourth floors.
