About this map

The Tualatin Mountains rise sharply above the Willamette River and Multnomah Channel in this detailed survey revised in 1990. The industrial and transit corridor along the river is anchored by Linnton and Saint Johns, connected by the iconic Saint Johns Bridge. Inland, the map documents the suburban and academic growth of the region, featuring the Portland Community College Rock Creek Campus and residential developments like Marlene Village and Cedar Hills.

Transit history is caught mid-development, with the light rail Transit line shown under construction through Elmonica and Beaverton. Genealogists and local historians can find several burial sites, including Union Cem and the extensive Skyline Memorial Gardens located atop the ridge near Bonny Slope. The map also captures the sprawling green space of Forest Park and the industrial activity near the Gasco plant and Burlington Northern rail lines.
