The Governor Chamberlain Home was designed in 1891 as a classic Shingle Style Victorian by famous Portland architects Whidden and Lewis. In 1904, Oregon politician George Chamberlain and his wife purchased the house. Chamberlain became Governor of Oregon in 1902 and passed many vital laws in his two terms. In 1909 he was elected US Senator and served two terms. In 1916 Chamberlain was offered the nomination for Vice President of the United States by Woodrow Wilson. But he declined in favor of a return to Portland and his beloved house in Irvington! Governor Chamberlain's daughter, Carrie Lee, became the very first Rose Festival Queen in 1907 (Queen Flora). The Chamberlain House was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991 for its connection with one of Oregon's most respected citizens.
