Levi Hexter House

The Levi Hexter House is a house located in southwest Portland, Oregon listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is located within the King's Hill Historic District.
The house was built in 1892 by Levi Hexter (1836–1897), who was a prominent Jewish businessman and founded a dry goods store (the May & Co. – still operating in Portland) along with Levi May. Portland was well known as having deep-seated racism in the 1890s and the store was the scene of several racially inspired brawls. Levi helped found Washington Park and Beth Israel synagogue. Levi and Laura (May) Hexter had two sons and three daughters who lived in the house. One bedroom was dedicated rent free for the head gardener at Washington Park. In the 1920s, the house was a speakeasy and then in the depression became a boarding house. Starting in the 1960s, it went through a complete restoration by architect Robert Peron that returned it to its original Victorian charm, becoming a national landmark in 1978 and winning Portland's Residential Preservation top award in 1989. The house currently has seven bedrooms and 4.5 baths and is about 6,000 square feet, with a two-car garage added in 2002.
