All that is left of the garage at the Captain George Conrad Flavel home is a pile of rotted boards. Parts of the garage was still standing after the City of Astoria cleaned up the property in 2012, but vegetation grew up again and claimed the last standing walls of the garage. A few recognizable pieces could be found, but there weren’t enough clues to put together the style and look of the garage.
Greg has spent the last year looking for pictures of the garage so he could rebuild it. Local Architectural Historian John Goodenberger looked through his files, and came across some pictures he took from the mid to late 1990’s. These are the first pictures we’ve seen of the garage, and will help Greg make sense of the rotted pile of boards when he rebuilds the garage, hopefully next year.
