What to See in Portland Update2009
What to see in Portland, OR - by Marco Behrmann 07/02/2004 1/3 WHAT TO SEE IN PORTLAND , OR _________________________________________ Listed below you will find a couple of sights and my personal favourites to do in Portland. Since Portland was my town of exchange I do not know as many things about the other cities like Eugene, Corvallis, Ashland or La Grande. However, it would be just great if somebody could add tips about their places similar to the ones here, too! Please feel free to forward them to me (marcobehrmann[at]web.de ). I do not want you to believe that just because I stayed in Portland, and have many tips here for Portland, that a year at one of the other Oregon cities is not the same exciting. The tips listed here, however, are interesting for all Baden-Wuerttemberg students in Oregon, because many things you can already see and experience during your orientation weeks. (BTW: This is almost everything I did (among other things, of course) within my 2 ½ weeks of re-visiting in June 2004; but it took me a year of living in the city in 2001/02 to figure out which were the hot tips ☺) Here are my personal Must-Sees Oregon History Center in SW Park blocks right south of PSU (This museum features very interesting and well researched exhibitions about the development of Portland as a city as well as about the whole Pacific Northwest as it was discovered from the sea and the Columbia River; good place to check out during your orientation weeks; you get a student reduction with ISIC or other student ID card) Council Crest Park (considered the highest spot in Portland; nice views to Mt Hood, Mt Adams, Mt St Helens and even Mt Rainier on some days as well as to Beaverton; take Bus 51 [Vista]; the Bus driver often feels himself as an informal Portland guide; tell him that you are visiting and he even might stop for you at nice viewpoints to take pictures. -

Stitching a River Culture: Trade, Communication and Transportation to 1960
Stitching a River Culture: Trade, Communication and Transportation to 1960 W. R. Swagerty and Reuben W. Smith, University of the Pacific Swagerty & Smith 1 Stitching a River Culture: Communication, Trade and Transportation to 1960 An essay by William R. Swagerty & Reuben W. Smith The Delta Narratives Project Delta Protection Commission, State of California June 1, 2015 California’s Delta California’s Delta is a unique environment, created by the natural drainage of the state’s Sierra Nevada range into the Central Valley, which in turn delivers the runoff of rain and snowmelt into river basins that meander and spill into sloughs, bays, and ultimately the Pacific Ocean. According to environmental historian Philip Garone, “Rising sea levels between six thousand and seven thousand years ago impeded the flow of the lower reaches of the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers, creating a labyrinthine network of hundreds of miles of sloughs surrounding nearly one hundred low-lying islands—the historic Delta.”1 Today, the original 738,000 acres of the Delta are among the most engineered lands in the state; and yet, they still have environmental, social, and economic attributes that merit recognition and protection. By the State of California Delta Protection Commission’s own introductory definition: The Primary Zone of the Sacramento San Joaquin Delta (Delta) includes approximately 500,000 acres of waterways, levees and farmed lands extending over portions of five counties: Solano, Yolo, Sacramento, San Joaquin and Contra Costa. The rich peat soil in the central Delta and the mineral soils in the higher elevations support a strong agricultural economy. -

Southwest in Motion (SWIM) Plan
Southwest In Motion (SWIM) Plan To: Stakeholder Working Group From: Nick Falbo, Senior Transportation Planner; Qingyang Xi, Community Service Aide Date: July 6, 2018 Subject: Southwest In Motion Community Comments Atlas Southwest In Motion is a short-term refinement, prioritization and implementation strategy for planned active transportation investments in Southwest Portland. As a starting point for project prioritization, staff compiled a list of previously identified planned projects documented in 20 years of past planning efforts. To verify the project list, staff launched an online mapping tool in February and March 2018 inviting the community to comment on the list of planned projects, and to recommend other locations where they wanted to see projects built. Community comments and project requests were identified on all corners of Southwest Portland. This memo records the comments received during this engagement process as an archive of community interests, issues and desires for planned projects and potential new project ideas. Community Commenting In March 2018, PBOT invited community members to provide their opinions on existing planned pedestrian and biking projects and suggest new projects they want to see through an online mapping tool. For planned pedestrian and bike routes, we asked community members to choose the facility type they prefer and leave comments. People could also draw routes and intersections they want to see improved on the online map and leave comments. We received 1196 comments in total, which include 324 responses for bike projects and 872 responses for pedestrian projects. Comment Synthesis and Processing The online needs mapping tool allowed users to leave comments on existing planned projects, or to request new project ideas and crossing locations.
