More about the book
The history of Portland's neighborhoods is intricately linked to the streetcar system, a 19th-century innovation that shaped the city's layout and growth. The carlines facilitated not only daily commutes but also recreational outings, connecting residents to parks, shopping, and social activities. The peak of trolley use occurred in the 1910s, followed by a gradual decline leading to the end of streetcars in 1950, when buses took over. This book delves into the legacy of these classic streetcar lines and their influence on the city's development.
