Albertina Kerr Nursery

Albertina Kerr Nursery is a historic building at 424 NE 22nd Avenue in Northeast Portland, Oregon. Constructed in 1921, the building is associated with the Albertina Kerr organization and is recognized for its architectural and historical significance. It was designed by the Portland architecture firm Johnson, Parker & Wallwork. The property was added to the United States National Register of Historic Places on August 29, 1979. The subject is a historic structure rather than a conventional consumer brand, operating company, product line, or commercial trademark. Its relevance comes from its place in Portland's institutional and architectural history. The name connects the building with Albertina Kerr, an organization known for social and community services, but the building itself is treated as a distinct historic-property subject in the canonical Wikipedia entry. The available reference material does not establish a current operating business, ownership structure, corporate parent, public listing, website, financial profile, or named executives for the property. Nor does it document a product portfolio, marketing program, product launch, merger, lawsuit, scandal, or other brand-management activity. Accordingly, this dossier focuses on the building's construction, architectural attribution, location, and National Register designation rather than presenting it as an active commercial brand.

Albertina Kerr Nursery was constructed in 1921 at 424 NE 22nd Avenue in Northeast Portland, Oregon. The building was designed by Johnson, Parker & Wallwork, a Portland architecture firm active during the period. Its original institutional purpose is reflected in the name Albertina Kerr Nursery, which links the property to the Albertina Kerr organization and its historical social-service context. The building forms part of Portland's institutional and built heritage. Rather than functioning primarily as a consumer-facing brand, it is documented as a historic property whose significance rests on its location, architecture, historical associations, and preservation status. The available reference material does not provide a detailed chronology of later alterations, changes in use, ownership transfers, restoration projects, or current programming, so those aspects cannot be described reliably here. On August 29, 1979, Albertina Kerr Nursery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The designation formally recognized the property's historic importance within the United States and placed it among the documented historic resources of Portland's Northeast neighborhood. It is also referenced in relation to the National Register of Historic Places listings in Northeast Portland and to the broader Albertina Kerr subject. The surviving information supports a concise architectural and preservation history: construction in 1921, design by Johnson, Parker & Wallwork, location in Northeast Portland, and National Register listing in 1979. No verified information in the supplied sources identifies a founder, current owner, operating organization, present-day occupants, or later corporate history.
