Portland, Oregon is a city with a rich and diverse history, and its neighborhoods are a reflection of that. From the vibrant counterculture of the Pearl District to the quirky charm of Nob Hill, there's something for everyone in Portland.
In this book, we'll take you on a journey through some of Portland's most iconic neighborhoods, meeting the people who live and work there, and exploring the history and culture that make them so special.
Pickers
Portland is a haven for pickers, those who love to rummage through thrift stores and flea markets in search of hidden treasures. In the Pearl District, you'll find a treasure trove of vintage clothing, furniture, and home decor. And in Nob Hill, you'll find a eclectic mix of antiques, art, and collectibles.
Punks
Portland has a long and proud history of punk rock. In the 1970s, bands like the Dead Kennedys and the Wipers helped to put Portland on the map as a major center for the punk scene. Today, Portland is still home to a thriving punk community, with venues like the Satyricon and the Ash Street Saloon hosting shows every night of the week.
Transit Ghosts
Portland is also known for its transit ghosts. These are the spirits of people who died on or near the city's public transportation system. One of the most famous transit ghosts is the ghost of a woman who was killed by a train in 1912. Her ghost is said to haunt the Portland Streetcar, and riders have reported seeing her sitting in the back of the train, staring out the window.
Portland is a city with a lot to offer, and this book is just a small glimpse into its rich history and culture. Whether you're a picker, a punk, or a believer in the supernatural, there's something in Portland for you.
So come on down to Portland and explore the city for yourself. You never know what you might find.
