WARRENTON, Ore. (AP) — The Lewis and Clark National Historical Park is getting a mystery house.

A sprawling building on just over 100 acres of land being added to the park features big open rooms and some weird twists and nooks believed to have been built by famed Oregon architect John Yeon.

His brother, Norman Yeon, previously owned the land and lived in the house until his death in 2004.

But nobody has any records about the house, so it will take some investigation to figure out if it really was built by John Yeon.

But officials say it will provide a home for conservation and restoration work in the area.
