multnomah
In 1908 the Oregon Electric Railway stopped
here on it's way from Portland to Salem. Now Multnomah Village is a
special Portland neighborhood with a small town feeling. The Village has
maintained an atmosphere of good service with imaginative establishments.
Over 100 different businesses and community services, you will find
antique stores, galleries, gift and specialty shops, distinctive
restaurants and much more. There is something for every mood, every
preference, every individual.
B. Woodward laid out the land around Multnomah in 1902, naming north-south
streets after states and east-west streets after trees.
The Village is less than 15 minutes from downtown Portland (Southwest of
downtown). Other attractions are the convenient access to the Multnomah
Arts Center (learn to paint, draw, dance, sing, play an instrument, etc.)
and the Southwest Community Center (swimming, exercise classes, etc.)
located in the 90 acre Gabriel Park.
