About this map

The Columbia River and Willamette River define this 1905 landscape at their historic confluence, showing the industrial and residential growth of the region before significant land reclamation. Notable is the presence of Guild Lake and Swan Island in their early configurations, alongside the wetlands of Mocks Bottom and the Columbia Slough. The transit network is highly developed, featuring the Northern Pacific RR and the Portland and Vancouver Branch, which connected the burgeoning city centers.
