Jacob Kamm House, French Second Empire mansion in Goose Hollow, Portland, United States.
The three-story structure features horizontal siding, wooden quoins, and covers 8,671 square feet across multiple levels including a basement.
Built in 1871 at SW 14th and Main Street, the house moved to its current location at 1425 SW 20th Avenue in 1950 to accommodate Lincoln High School construction.
The mansion currently functions as the headquarters of Alliance française de Portland, contributing to the French cultural exchange in the region.
Located at the intersection of SW 20th Avenue and Jefferson Street, the house maintains its residential character while serving organizational purposes.
The original heating system incorporated a ship boiler, while air circulation relied on basement coolness through an early form of temperature control.
