Many years ago Portland, Oregon’s downtown waterfront was lined with buildings, some more grand than others, awaiting goods coming in and to ship goods out through the ships on the sea. But with time transporting goods by sea would fade and the city’s main commercial district would move further inland. By the early 1900s the beautiful, mostly cast iron, architectures that lines Front Avenue by the waterfront to the north end had fallen from grace. Most of them were vacant or being used for storage… living on borrowed time.
This video dives into the final years of these beautiful structures that started going away during the 1930s and by the early 1940s were almost totally gone. This piece was inspired by the photographs taken by Minor White in the late 1930s.
