Weatherly Building
The Weatherly Building in Portland, Oregon is a 12-story commercial office building. It was built in 1926 by ice cream businessman George Warren Weatherly.〔(Cone Pioneer Dies in Portland ) August 13, 1948 Eugene Register Guard〕
According to a photograph dated December 21, 1927 held by the Library of Congress as part of the Historic American Buildings Survey collection (labeled "Stevens Commercial Photographers") the building was designed by architects Sutton & Whitney〔 and Lee Thomas, and was built by Robertson Hay & Wallace general contractors.〔See inset in the infobox image〕
==Background==
Weatherly's creamery business started with a second-hand freezer in a small candy shop in 1890 and grew to produce an estimated 90% of Oregon ice cream sales. He was "locally credited" with inventing the ice cream cone〔 and to have been the "east side's leading citizen in the 1920 and 1930s".〔 The building helped develop the so-called "uptown district"〔Laura O. Foster (Portland City Walks: Twenty Explorations in and Around Town )〕 and had an ice cream shop on its ground floor.〔 An employee of Weatherly's, F. A. Bruckman, invented and patented the first successful cone manufacturing machine.〔
