Discovering Edgar Lazarus: A Closer Look at a Legendary Portland Architect
April 9, 2011 |
Edgar M. Lazarus designed over 150 projects throughout his 40+ year career. Yet today only a small body of work has been attributed to him, including buildings long since demolished. His legacy includes Portland landmarks: the U.S. Custom House, the Electric Building, the Taft Hotel, and several impressive houses. Beyond Portland, his notable designs include courthouses for Morrow and Clatsop counties, early buildings on the Oregon State University campus, and the Dome Building at Salem's Oregon State Hospital. The iconic Vista House at Crown Point is his masterwork.
