Ft. Like the residence next door at 847 Exchange, this property was constructed by Job Ross, father of William. This was Ross's first home built in Astoria following a treacherous cross country journey that involved being captured by the Pawnee whilst crossing the Platte River in Nebraska. Determined to make it to Astoria, Ross journeyed on and settled in Astoria in 1852. Originally a simple plan, folk Victorian, this property has lived a number of lives and has been transformed and expanded over its many years. The Loyal Order of the Moose used the property as their meeting hall from 1900 to 1948. Following that, a local Morman church established a worship hall in the home that ran until 1966. Various businesses occupied the space through the late eighties upon which time the current owner purchased and set to work restoring the property and completely rebuilding it from the inside out. Three individual apartments, each comprised of thoughtfully decorated bedrooms, living spaces, kitchens, and baths are available for nightly rentals but could also serve as apartments for long-term housing. Enchanting gardens surround the property along with a garage below at street level.
