[3] It is located in the Goose Hollow neighborhood.

Contents

The well-preserved Italianate residence now called the "Cable House" was built in 1891 at the base of Portland Heights. It sits on a small parcel of land, situated on a steep, brushy hillside of a small canyon in the Goose Hollow neighborhood of southwest Portland. It is one of three known castle-like houses in Portland, and the only one that is wood-framed. The Cable House is located just below Montgomery Drive and is oriented to the east with views of downtown Portland. [4]
