The Romanesque Pacific Coast Biscuit Company Building is located at 1101-1129 NW Davis Street, between Eleventh and Twelfth Avenues. This brick warehouse has a corbeled brick edge at the cornice and a bull's-eye window at the gable's peak. There was supposedly a brick swastika design under the gable which was removed once that symbol was no longer associated with its original Hindu meaning of good luck (Bart King, "An Architectural Guidebook to Portland," 2001, p. 184).Instructions for logging waymark: A photograph is required of you (or your GPS receiver, if you are waymarking solo) and the place.
