<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-bidi-font-weight:bold"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"">The Aloha Farmhouse in Washington County is among Oregon’s latest entries in the National Register of Historic Places.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman""> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"">Built about 1915, the Aloha Farmhouse is a modest Craftsman-inspired residence that Pietro Belluschi, Oregon’s most renowned 20th century
architect, remodeled for his own use in 1944 and again about 1946. The period of time in which Belluschi and his family lived in the farmhouse, which was located on a rural, six-acre site with an orchard at that time, was one of the most important and prolific
of Belluschi’s career. A few years later, he accepted the position of Dean of the School of Architecture and Planning at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in which he established the reputation that would lead to the next phase of his long and successful
career.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman""> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"">Belluschi bought the farmhouse when his boys were small and needed room to grow. He remodeled the house, using the design vocabulary
that he had been experimenting with in such Northwest Regional-style houses as his previous Council Crest home, the Philip Joss house, and the Dr. and Mrs. Burkes house – all located in Portland. Little changed since Belluschi returned to Portland with his
family in 1948, the Aloha Farmhouse still retains its rustic character, which he admired when he purchased the house and was careful to preserve in the renovation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman""> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"">Belluschi and his family left Portland for the east coast in early 1951. In addition to his teaching responsibilities, he began a successful
architectural consulting practice there, on some of the highest profile projects in the country, including the Juilliard School in New York and St. Mary’s Cathedral in San Francisco. He returned to Portland in 1973, taking up residence in the Burkes house
that he had designed in the mid-1940s. Belluschi died in 1994, at the age of 94. His wife Marjorie lived in the house until 2009. It is now the home of Marti and Anthony Belluschi, Pietro Belluschi’s son, who is also an architect.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman"">The Aloha Farmhouse is the last remaining residence that Belluschi designed for himself in the Portland area that also retains its
historic character. Oregon’s State Advisory Committee on Historic Preservation recommended the property’s nomination in their June 2014 meeting. It is a unique property that joins the recently listed Oak Hills National Register Historic District to celebrate
Oregon’s mid-century architectural heritage in Washington County. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Garamond","serif";
mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";mso-bidi-font-weight:bold">The PSAP considers many facets of preservation need: ranging from the condition of specific materials to
understanding how the building, environment, policies, and usage all affect the health of the materials overall. Preservation assessments are a key element of good collection stewardship as they allow collections managers and curators to become more familiar
with the health of their collections and derive accurate metrics about collections. These metrics help managers both to determine preservation needs and to better articulate and document the needs of their collections in grant applications.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

societies, museums, scientific research collections, and archaeological repositories. The survey includes questions ranging in topics from the care of digital material to staffing. It will take selected institutions an estimated one to three hours to complete
