About this Event
Please join the ICAA’s Northwest Chapter for a special opportunity to deepen your appreciation for one of Portland’s architectural treasures: the Multnomah County Central Library. We will investigate the building via a diverse range of activities throughout the day, learning about its architecture and history from original conception by A.E. Doyle in 1913 to the current improvement projects.
We will begin with a guided tour of the building, led by Hennebery Eddy Architects and Multnomah County Library. We will then provide instruction on the practice of measured architectural drawings, and spend time studying the Library in detail through this methodology. After a lunch break, we will continue our event with a visit to the Oregon Historical Society to review A.E. Doyle’s original drawings for the building.
