The 2.5 story, 3,700 square foot, Pittock-Leadbetter House was built in 1901 as a farmhouse. Queen Anne style exhibits bold forms and grand dimensions laced with elegant beveled glass and whimsical details. The circular bay capped with a conical roof is featured on the southeast corner of the house which was restored in the 1980s.
The house was originally built by pioneer businessman and publisher of The Oregonian newspaper, Henry L. Pittock for his son and daughter-in-law to live in after their marriage in 1902.
