Biography

Linde was born in the Duchy of Brunswick,[1] and moved with his family to Milwaukee. He worked with O. C. Uehling and in Chicago before he moved to Portland, Oregon in 1906. He worked there as an architect until 1940. He started his own practice after 1921, and prior to that he worked for established Portland architects. Throughout his career, he became known for his preference toward Jacobean Revival architecture. Linde died in Portland on July 12, 1945.[1]
