Church of Scientology Portland

The new home of the Portland Church of Scientology is the renowned Sherlock Building. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the building is recognized as one of the most noteworthy late-19th century structures in Portland and the preeminent example of Sullivanesque-style architecture in Oregon. The Church of Scientology undertook its complete restoration to preserve its history and heritage for another century. The landmark now stands fully equipped to accommodate the full range of Dianetics and Scientology services and serve all communities throughout the Willamette Valley.

The Church of Scientology’s new home is the historic Sherlock Building. Originally constructed in 1893, the landmark was heavily influenced by the work of eminent architect Louis Sullivan, whose distinct style combined modern elements with the Romanesque Revival style then prevalent in America. The Sherlock Building has long been listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is recognized as the preeminent example of Sullivanesque architecture in Oregon. The Church meticulously preserved its distinguished architecture.

The renowned Sherlock Building rises seven stories at the corner of Third Avenue and Oak Street. As a result of the Church’s work to preserve this historic landmark, it will stand for another century. The building retains its original Romanesque Revival features, including the distinctive brick piers with rusticated stone capitals and trim.

Among the building’s original details now preserved are the signature Sullivanesque windows, framed with brick arches and terra cotta medallions.

Historic elements preserved in the interior of the Sherlock Building include the foyer’s coffered ceilings.
