This is dumb, just because something is old and nice doesn't make it historic, valuable, or important to the community. Apparently once something is built it can never go away because someone has some kind of an irrational attachment to it.
I see the protection of culture as an attack on progress. Maybe if we want some authentic culture we could rebuilt the longhouses and/or use the temporary tent like structures of the nomads. That would be historic and cultural. ( I'm an oregonian but not a portlander btw).
In a more personal note these huge victorian style homes remind me of slave plantations with the big house, good riddance.
