Deco Building
Portland, OR Photo courtesy Jeff Raber
Here's a deco building located in the Portland area. This building looks
like its home to some sort of library or public office. In some ways, the building looks like a miniature deco Sears store. See this deco store and more at Roadside Peek'sDeco Delights.
