Pictures from Portland
Folio 2 -- City of Portland

by Roger Bourke White Jr., July 2005

 

Portlandia

This towering bronze is downtown, but on a narrow street that cramps her style, a bit.
Portland has wonderful vistas, but they tend to be intimate ones compared to Salt Lake City vistas.

 

Portland Parks

Portland has some nice central city parks, they are tree-filled and pleasant.

The Wilamette River, Center of Portland

The Wilamette River (pronounced wiLAMet) is Portland's center. This is a picture after sunset from one of the riverside parks.
This was a summer celebration night, I forget which, and a carnival was installed on the far bank.
