About this map

The Columbia River and Willamette River anchor this mid-century portrait of the Pacific Northwest, showing the vital intersection of water and rail transport. This survey details the landscape from the coastal communities of Seaside and Cannon Beach across the Coast Range to the urban centers of Portland and Vancouver. The industrial and agricultural development of the Tualatin Valley is evident in settlements like Forest Grove, Hillsboro, and Cornelius, while the northern timberlands are marked by smaller outposts such as Vernonia and Birkenfeld.
