The Pittock Mansion was built by Henry Pittock. He was born in England, but he moved with his family to the USA in 1839. He arrived barefoot and without a cent in Portland in 1853. He got a job as a typesetter at the Oregonian, which he took over and launched as a daily newspaper in 1861. From there his fortune grew and at his death in 1919 his estate was worth around 7 million dollars. In 1909-1914 he built this mansion in the West Hills of Portland. It was nearly demolished in 1962, but nowadays it is a museum.
