A 1908 home in Portland, Oregon that once belonged to the owner of Loomis Armored Car Service is for sale at $3.2 million. Lee Loomis was a banker who pioneered the use of bullet-proof vehicles to transport cash between banks and businesses. As happened with many of the grand homes in the 1950s and 60s, many of his homes’ best features were covered over such as oak floors covered in linoleum and woodwork hidden behind drywall. Fortunately, the home has been restored to its original beauty. OregonLive.com has photos.
