The Builders: Northeast Portland

THE BUILDERS
Thousands of hands have shaped Portland’s eastside homes and neighborhoods. The men and women who
imagined and then built these places in the early 1900s are gone. But remembering them and the work
they’ve left behind adds context to our own residency here today.
With words, photos, drawings and maps, Northeast Portland historian Doug Decker will share the stories of
builders whose work typifies the homebuilding experience in Portland between 1912 and 1955.
