Description

 

When the Portland streetcar company pushed its tracks north from Broadway through Irvington in 1909, it triggered a flood of upper class buyers who built substantial “modern” homes within walking distance of the tracks. Join us for this new tour, where you'll learn the history of the neighborhood and the long-gone streetcar route that once provided service every 5 minutes, whisking residents to downtown shopping and offices.

 

Space is Limited. Pre-registration is required.
