About Us

Dave Sullivan

Dr. Dave Sullivan is an emeritus professor of business from Oregon State University (see http://business.oregonstate.edu/users/dave-sullivan). Being an emeritus professor is just a fancy way of saying I retired honorably.

Along with my wife, Barbara, we have purchased and restored a number of historic Albany Oregon homes. In 2003, we purchased the N. H. Allen house at the edge of downtown Albany, Oregon. We spent eighteen years renovating and living in that home. You can learn more about that home's history at www.nhallen.net.

In 2004, we purchased 140 5th Avenue SE, Albany, Oregon as a burned-out wreck and brought it back from the dead. You can see before-and-after pictures of that renovation at: https://photos.app.goo.gl/Zaeqv9qDKzJZ6z2H8.

In 2016, we won the 2016 Albany Historic Preservation Award for removing incompatible alterations and rehabilitating the house at 338 6th Avenue SE. You can see before-and-after pictures of that renovation at https://goo.gl/photos/eVWtYYd5wNTiznMj9.

My most recent project involves designing and building lookout towers. You can read about that at www.sandboxdesigns.org.
