Flavel House in Astoria, Oregon on September 24, 2005

One of the most well known buildings in Astoria, this Queen Anne Victorian was built in 1885 as the home of Captain George Flavel, Astoria's first millionaire. Today, the house and grounds have been restored to original condition and are maintained as a museum by the Clatsop County Historical Society, enabling visitors to see a home as it was over 100 years ago. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 28, 1980.
