Additional Information

This perspective map was produced by Eli Glover and published in 1879. Glover was one of the most prolific perspective illustrators of the nineteenth century, and his portrayals include an incredible amount of detail transporting the viewer back in time to a Portland that was rapidly developing and becoming a significant hub for the Northwest.

After a major fire in 1873 destroyed twenty blocks on the west side near the Willamette, Portland's bustling downtown was rebuilt, and the city had nearly eighteen thousand residents by 1879. By focusing on local resources and not accepting support from San Francisco or the East Coast, Portland's domestic economy was able to thrive through the nationwide panic of 1873. The Pioneer Courthouse, James B. Stephens House, and Jacob Kamm's house all still stand today as they were portrayed here.

The early history of Portland was one of a hard edge, gritty port town, and it's unique position as an inland port contributed to this quality. Because Portland had both a port and Railway hubs, it was the principal port in the Northwest for nearly all of the 19th century. Being able to export the robust timber from the region was another primary economic driver and led to the cities apt nickname of 'Stumptown.'

The grandeur of the surrounding mountains is enhanced by Glover using an eastern facing perspective. MT Rainier, MT St. Helens, Mt Tabor, and Mt Hood, as well as the Columbia River Gorge, are all depicted with an immediately recognizable aesthetic that harkens back to Portland's early days as a rough and tumble port town.
