The well-preserved Italianate residence now called the "Cable House" was built in 1891 at the base of Portland Heights.

It sits on a small parcel of land, situated on a steep, brushy hillside of a small canyon in the Goose Hollow neighborhood of southwest Portland.

The Cable House possesses unique visual character, and shows remarkable adaptation to the hillside on which it sits.

The house is located just below Montgomery Drive and is oriented to the east with a spectacular view of downtown Portland.
