The Commodore – 1615 S.W. Morrison Street at 16th Avenue, Portland, Oregon
The former Commodore Hotel is a four-story, Art Deco style, reinforced concrete building located in Portland, Oregon, United States. It was built in 1925 by Herman Brookman, and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The building currently houses a market, apartments, and a restaurant. Although the base has ben altered, the remaining elevations and interior spaces retain a high degree of integrity.
Just above the fourth floor windows is a frieze of cast stone with a diamond-shaped pattern of flowers. The narrow pilasters extend through this band and are capped by sculpted birds which resemble those below but are shorter, narrower, and don’t have shields in front. The large pilasters extending above the parapet wall are buttressed by volutes and then capped with balls. At the corner the pilasters and decorations from the front and side facades rise next to each other. A small sculpted bird set between them faces out diagonally to the corner.
