    McMorran House and Gardens Brochure
    (University of Oregon, 2016-01) Campus Planning, University of Oregon
    George McMorran was a very successful businessman, from the beginning of his partnership with Carl Washburne in 1910 until McMorran sold his shares to Washburne in 1937. They started in the dry goods industry working from a single small room. Within a year of opening, McMorran and Washburne became one of the most popular stores in Eugene. In 1921 they relocated to the Tiffany Building (then known as the Cockerline and Weatherbee building) on the northeast corner of 8th Avenue and Willamette Street. This building is still intact and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

    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.
