Still standing: An inventory of Portland's oldest homes
We searched to find some of the oldest Portland homes, duplexes and apartments that have survived more than a century of progress. Here's how they have changed and stayed the same. Some have been placed on the National Register of Historic Places, which means buildings, sites and other properties are significant to "our past for their design, their importance in our history, and/or their association with historical figures," says Diana J Painter, an architectural historian with the State Historic Preservation Office, which administers the National Register of Historic Places in Oregon. The photo shows the 1892 Dr. K.A.J. and Cora Mackenzie House in Northwest Portland.
