King's Hill is a historic neighborhood donated by pioneer settler Amos King. It was not developed until the late 1800s because of its hilly nature, inaccessibility and distance from the city's core. At the crest of the hill is Portland's most celebrated public park, Washington Park. At the foot of the hill are the Multnomah Athletic Club and the Civic Stadium.
Buildings in the vicinity are primarily spacious two and three-story residences constructed for well-to-do citizens at the turn of the century, While most of them remain single family homes, some along Salmon Street have become offices. In spite of being used for commercial purposes, they retain their residential qualities. There are, as well, a few high and low-rise apartment structures and clubhouses for organizations such as the Portland Garden Club and Oregon Society of Artists.

The A. H. Maegly House is located in the upscale Arlington Heights neighborhood. Built for a wealthy Portland broker, the distinctive house was completed in 1915. It was designed by Portland architect John Virginius Bennes, in the Prairie School style, an architectural style that is rare in Oregon.
The house is constructed of reinforced concrete, covered by stucco, and has a red tile roof. Among the features of the Maegly House that are often included in Prairie School-style dwellings are decorative corner brackets and ornamental friezes, above and below the second-floor windows. One narrow frieze positioned just below the eaves encircles the entire house except where interrupted at the corners by the decorative brackets. The interior is noteworthy for its use of high-quality Honduran mahogany.
Every room in the house has multiple windows, and every ground-floor room opens to a porch or terrace. Downtown Portland and Mount Hood can be seen from the living room, dining room and kitchen. The home is surrounded by a garden notable for its collection of Japanese maples, planted by Aaron Maegly's wife. A circular brick driveway leads to a porte-cochère.
