Explain contributing and noncontributing resources if necessary. Begin with a summary paragraph that briefly describes the general characteristics of the property, such as its location, setting, size, and significant features.) Summary Paragraph The Irvington Historic District is a residential neighborhood, composed primarily of single-family homes, located in northeast Portland, Oregon. It is bounded on the north by NE Fremont Street, south by NE Broadway, west by NE 7th Avenue, and on the east by 27th Avenue. The district encompasses approximately 583 acres and consists of almost 200 long rectangular blocks. Newer multi-family residence (e.g. apartment buildings, duplexes, and triplexes) have been constructed along the southern end of the district and close to former north/south lines associated with the former streetcars. While infill has occurred over time, Irvington has maintained its suburban setting. The district’s suburban setting is exemplified by tree lined streets, uniform setbacks, and the similarity of scale and design in the housing stock. The majority of homes were constructed between 1900 and 1930 but with surviving examples of early Queen Anne style cottages and mid- twentieth century residential buildings as well. The district is notable for its collection of Queen Anne, Period Revival (revival style inspired cottages, English Cottage, Tudor Revival, Classical Revival, Mediterranean Revival, and Colonial Revival), Bungalow/Craftsman, and Prairie School residences. The most common alterations to buildings in the district are the application of vinyl siding, porch alterations, and the replacement of original windows. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Narrative Description District Boundary - Physical Description The Irvington Historic District encompasses approximately 583 acres between NE Fremont Street, NE Broadway, NE 7th Avenue, and the east side properties along NE 27th Avenue (with a small extension that includes some properties along NE 28th Avenue – see historic district map – Additional Information section, pages 18-34). While the district boundary is reflective of historic plats and associations with land development in Irvington, the boundary also reflects important physical differences in terms of geography, lot size, property use, and historical integrity. The west boundary along NE 7th Avenue is distinctive for the residential development to the west of NE 7th Avenue is aligned on an east – west axis as opposed to the north – south axis of the road grid that characterizes much of Irvington. The residences to the west of NE 7th Avenue also exhibit a lesser degree of historical integrity. The north boundary along NE Fremont Street exhibits several differences in terms of historical associations and the intrusion of commercial development. The area to the north of Fremont Street is associated with the development of the Alameda and Albina neighborhoods. The Alameda Ridge, which lies just a couple of blocks north of Fremont also represents an important topographic feature that precipitates changes to the orthogonal grid as streets traverse the ridge in a curvilinear fashion. Lot shapes and sizes are irregular as a result of the changes in topography and road alignments. Due to the views from the ridgeline, residences and lot sizes within the Alameda neighborhood in particular are much larger in contrast to Irvington’s lots. The east boundary (largely along NE 27th Avenue), generally follows the eastern boundary of several plats that were developed along with the original Irvington plat in the late- nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The lots in these plats are similarly sized and the residences follow similar architectural trends as those found within the Irvington plat. To the east of NE 27th (and outside the district), the lot sizes become noticeably larger and more irregular in terms of shape. Dwelling sizes also tend to increase. The road network also deviates from Irvington’s grid. The southern boundary along NE Broadway is largely based upon a notable decrease in historical integrity in the properties on the southern side of NE Broadway. This lack of integrity is largely the result of commercial development that occurred as the result of the construction of the Lloyd Center mall in 1960. 3 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service / National Register of Historic Places Registration Form NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 (Expires 5/31/2012) Irvington Historic District Multnomah Co., OR Name of Property County and State Irvington’s Suburban Characteristics and Physical Development The Streetcar Suburb is listed as a property subtype within the “Historic Residential Suburbs in the United States, 1830-1960” Multiple Property Documentation Form.1 Irvington was largely developed as a direct result of the expansion of the electric streetcar lines that extended from downtown Portland in the late-nineteenth century and by the first decade of the 1900s

    “The Drive-in Culture of Contemporary America” from Crabgrass Frontier: The Suburbanization of the United States (1985) Kenneth T. Jackson EDITORS’ INTRODUCTION As Friedrich Engels (p. 53), Frank Lloyd Wright (p. 388), Sam Bass Warner (p. 63), Robert Bruegmann (p. 218), Robert Fishman (p. 83), Myron Orfield (p. 338), and others have shown, suburbia has a long history, extending back at least as far as the European and American railway suburbs that arose as retreats from the polluted industrial cities for the comfortable middle class. But suburbanization took on new form and historical significance in the 1920s and in the years following World War II. The initial locus was America, and the catalyzing technology was the automobile. In Crabgrass Frontier, Kenneth T. Jackson, sometimes called the dean of American urban historians, provides a sweeping overview of the “suburban revolution” in the United States. In the chapter entitled “The Drive-in Culture of Contemporary America” he lays out a devastating critique of the mostly negative social and cultural effects that the private automobile has had on urban society. Kenneth T. Jackson did not originate the critique of suburbia. Indeed, the suburban developments of the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s in America and elsewhere gave birth to a massive literature, most of it highly critical. Damned as culturally dead and socially/racially segregated, the post-World War II suburbs were called “sprawl” and stigmatized as “anti-cities” (to use Lewis Mumford’s term to describe Los Angeles). Titles such as John Keats’s The Crack in the Picture Window (1956), Richard Gordon’s The Split-level Trap (1961), Mark Baldassare’s Trouble in Paradise (1986), Robert Fogelson’s Bourgeois Nightmares (2005), David Goetz’s Death by Suburb: How To Keep the Suburb from Killing Your Soul (2007), and Saralee Rosenberg’s Dear Neighbor, Drop Dead (2008) capture the tone of much of the commentary.

The result was hailed as the inevitable outcome of the desirable segre- gation of commercial from residential areas and of the disadvantaged from the more comfortable.

  • A. HISTORY of SUBURBANIZATION B.1 General History Of
    A. HISTORY OF SUBURBANIZATION B.1 General History of Suburbanization Suburbanization across the United States was influenced by both social and technological developments. In most areas, suburban development was directly related to the evolution of transportation routes. Therefore, these suburbs can be characterized as railroad suburbs, streetcar/trolley suburbs, early automobile suburbs, and freeway suburbs. In addition, the location and design of suburbs throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries were influenced by such factors as the ethnic heritage and the income of the prospective residents. Philosophies in the nineteenth century that promoted the health benefits of living outside the city and the escape from urban living encouraged settlement in areas outside urban centers. Later in the twentieth century, the philosophy was further perpetuated by urban and regional planning ideals. In both the nineteenth and the twentieth centuries, the phenomenon of pattern-books and mail-order houses influenced and standardized the development of housing across the United States. All of these influences combined to create a nationwide trend away from urban living and toward suburban development. B.1.1 Agricultural-Industrial Transition Period (1815-1870) The trend towards suburbanization in the United States has been attributed to the ideas set forth by Thomas Jefferson. As well as describing the general American belief in the Declaration of Independence, the Jeffersonian perception of democracy was promoted by the belief that rural life is best for the soul. He believed that the environment had a strong effect on human beings, and that the right surroundings would encourage men and women to think clearly and behave rationally, a necessary quality for a democratic society.

The Suburban Jeremiads: Critical Dialogues on American Suburbia Abstract The past twenty years have been witness to what can be called a dialogue on the subject of the American postwar suburb. Keep in mind that though there has almost been three quarters of a century since the end of the Second World War and the inception of the post war suburb, only recently has there been a dialogue instead of a hostile chorus of criticism. Therein lies the tension between title and subtitle of this paper; after all, a dialogue by definition should have a back and forth, a point and counterpoint, while a jeremiad uniformly bewails. There has and continues to be a kind of intellectual default that pervades popular and scholarly examinations of the suburb. We cannot necessarily be sure from where this kind of stance was derived, whether the popular critique takes its cues from the scholarly or vice versa.

  • Crabgrass Frontier Revisited in New York : Through the Lens of 21St-Century Data
    Crabgrass Frontier Revisited in New York : Through the Lens of 21st-century Data Sun Kyoung Lee⇤ Yale University Abstract Jackson’s famous Crabgrass Frontier: The Suburbanization of the United States (1985) ar- gues that when American cities suburbanized in the early nineteenth century, the richest households moved from the core to the periphery, the poorest stayed in the core, and the households that moved to the periphery were richer than those who were there be- fore them. I study the gradual process of prewar suburbanization in America’s biggest city, New York City, between 1870 and 1940. During this time there were huge trans- portation infrastructure improvements at both intra- and inter-city level, and there was gradual suburbanization, just as in Jackson (1985). I construct a historical longitudinal database that follows individuals to analyze how the migration patterns differ across workers with different income (skills). Rich people on average did not leave the core and poor people on average did not stay. New suburbanites to the city periphery were not richer than the people who already lived at the periphery. Jackson’s fundamental claim about the growth of high income at the edge relative to the center still holds true for my study period. However, I show the mechanism behind this change and show that this relative change in income growth at the edge did not result from a simple shuffling of rich and poor. Up until the Great Depression, flows of migrants from and to outside ⇤[email protected] 1 the metropolitan area were the dominant force in changing average income.

  • Reconsidering the Suburbs: an Exploration Oj Suburban Historiography
    Reconsidering the Suburbs: An Exploration oj Suburban Historiography N THE SPRING OF 1987, a group of museum administrators and their counterparts at historic houses and villages gathered at the I Strong Museum in Rochester, New York, for a workshop on the interpretation of the history of home and family. One of them com- mented, more or less in jest, that soon museum interpreters would be turning their attention to the first Levittown, where they would seek a house from which they could strip away the "improvements" in order to restore it to its original 1947 condition. Guides would give tours, dressed in period costumes, and museum educators would design "living history" tableaux. The idea seemed fanciful then, but a month later Hofstra University, located on Long Island near that same Levittown, marked the suburb's fortieth anniversary with a conference. Scholars and policy-makers gathered to analyze the sub- urbs of post-World War II America. When a local museum official confessed a desire to restore one of the early Levittown houses, hardly anyone smiled. The idea seemed perfectly credible. Urban intellec- tuals may raise their eyebrows, but it is not so farfetched to think that Levittown, or a community like it, might become the Colonial Williamsburg of the twenty-second century.1 After all, in our own century, the suburbanite has become the American archetype, much as the farming villager was in the colonial period. According to the 1980 census, about forty percent—a larger group than live either in cities or small towns—of all Americans reside in suburbs.

Redlining and the Homeowners' Loan Corporation Abstract This article analyzes the impact of the residential security maps created by the Home Owners’Loan Corporation (HOLC) during the 1930s on residential mortgages in Philadelphia. Researchers have consistently argued that HOLC caused redlining and disinvestment in U.S. cities by sharing its color-coded maps. Geographic information systems and spatial statistical models were used to analyze address-level mortgage data from Philadelphia to determine if areas with worse grades actually had less access to residential mortgage credit as a result. Findings indicate that the grades on HOLC’s map do not explain differences in lending patterns with the exception of interest rates, which were higher in areas colored red. Archival material and journal articles from the 1930s also reveal that lenders were avoiding areas colored red before HOLC made its maps, that HOLC’s maps were not widely distributed, and that lenders had other sources of information about real estate risk levels.
