The HPLO, Rejuvenation Hardware and the MCM League combine efforts May 11th & 12th to bring you a sampling of Portland’s wealth of mid-century architecture!


The Historic Preservation League of Oregon starts the weekend off with a tour of Saul Zaik Homes, all of which were chosen by Saul himself, and includes his personal home.  The tour price includes a lecture on Saul Zaik and the Northwest Regional.  Portland First United Methodist Church, Saturday, 10 am -4pm.
