Johan Poulsen House, Queen Anne mansion in Brooklyn, Portland, United States

The three-story yellow mansion features a 50-foot corner turret with a conical roof, three carved oak fireplaces, and crystal light fixtures throughout the interior.

Built in 1892 for lumber company owner Johan Poulsen, the residence was later acquired by A.A. Hoover in 1919, who gained recognition as The Doughnut King.

The house represents the architectural preferences of Portland's timber industry leaders during the late 19th century, combining German heritage with American design elements.

Located at 3040 SE McLoughlin Boulevard near the Ross Island Bridge, the 4,995-square-foot residence contains nine bedrooms across three floors.

The property includes a two-car garage connected to the main house through an underground tunnel, demonstrating early 20th-century residential engineering innovations.

Location: Portland

Architectural style: Queen Anne style architecture
