About this map

The Columbia River and Willamette River define this early 1960s view of the Pacific Northwest, where the growing urban cores of Portland and Vancouver are connected by the Pacific Highway. The landscape reveals a transition from industrial riverfronts, including the Shipyard and various Gravel Pits, to residential neighborhoods like Laurelhurst, Hollywood, and St. Johns. Aviation and military history are prominent, featuring the Portland International Airport, Portland Air Force Base, and Pearson Airport alongside the Fort Vancouver National Monument.
