dc.description"A House of Stone for Dr. Mackenzie" was presented at the Architectural Heritage Center, Portland, Oregon, on January 28, 2012. The presentation documents the careers of architects William F. McCaw, Richard H. Martin, Jr., and F. Manson White and their roles in creating key works in Oregon's architectural history. The presentation, using archival sources and images from many creators, including Marion Dean Ross, revises the historical record as to the architects of the Dr. Kenneth A. J. Mackenzie house, a work listed on the National Register of Historic Places.en_US
dc.description.abstractThe residence of Dr. Kenneth A.J. and Cora Mackenzie, Portland, Oregon, now the William Temple House, has delighted observers with its intriguing design and exceptional craftsmanship ever since its completion in 1892. Acclaimed as a masterwork of Whidden and Lewis, this presentation documents the discovery that this Portland landmark was actually designed by another firm, McCaw and Martin. Masters of the Richardsonian Romanesque, William F. McCaw and Richard H. Martin, Jr., are best known as architects of Portland’s Dekum Building, the Armory (now the Gerding Theater), the First Presbyterian Church, and the University of Portland’s West Hall. They were briefly associated with architect F. Manson White, and who designed what among the three is not clear in the historical record. Shaping a new history is made easier by the increasing availability of digitized resources. This presentation provides an entertaining look at Portland’s past while exploring the lives and work of three preeminent and understudied architects: McCaw, Martin, and White.en_US
