  • 9120-07. SW Washington at Park Ave, looking east.  This is the core of Portland's Theatre district as it was in 1911.  The intersection one block in the background is Portland's main intersection from that era, 8th Ave. (now Park).  The Star Theatre, on the extreme left, is now O'Bryant Square.   On the right is Cordray's Theatre, in it's later days when it was known as the Empress and the Grand.  The heyday of these theatres was from 1900 to 1910, when Portland's population more than doubled and good crowds supported seven nights and three matinees a week.  In 1909 the Portland City Council, responding to a disastrous theatre fire in Chicago, ruled that all theatres in frame buildings must cease operations.  The April 1911 deadline doomed the theatre district, and although several new vaudeville stages were constructed in other parts of downtown, the "stock companies" lost out to motion picture in the market and were all but gone by the great depression.  The building in the background under construction is the Wilcox building, built 1911

  • Simon 114.  view of downtown Portland from the Hawthorne Bridge, after the construction of the Seawall in 1927. The buildings in the foreground were demolished to make way for the Portland Public Market Building in 1933. (note billboard advertising "7th Western Divisional meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of the USA" which was held at Ogden, Utah, on October 1, 1929. billboard advertising "Powers for more than 60 years. Their 60th anniversary was 1926. In all likelihood, this dates from the summer of 1929.)

  • Y-480418-24. Celilo Village longhouse, Feast of the First Salmon dinner. April 18, 1948. The purpose of this annual feast was to give thanks and welcome the first salmon to start the spring run up the Columbia River. With the beginning of each year's new salmon run, Celilo Indians could eat fresh fish instead of the dried salmon they preserved from the year before. Historically this was expected to be the second or third week of April, but the Indians would begin the celebration only after the fish actually appeared. Just the year before, in 1948, Chief Tommy Thompson had gone to the Warm Springs to invite all the Indians to Celilo for the feast on the weekend the fish were anticapated, but when the fish didn't run he had to postpone the ceremony for another week. And nine years before, in 1940, the feast was held on the first weekend of April, at the time it was said to be the earliest the feast had ever been held. Attendance had ranged from, according to newspaper reports, 47 Indians in 1938, rising to 600 at this one. The following year, in 1949, the feast was again postponed due to no fish. With the end of Celilo in the forseeable future, crowds continued to grow and finally, in 1956, at the last Feast of the First Salmon before the innundation, unseasonably warm weather in the late winter thawed the ice fields and Celilo falls flooded making fishing impossible. Celilo Indians were forced to buy 400 pounds of salmon on the commercial market in Portland to feed the crowd, which the newspaper reported as being comprised of "More white folks with cameras than Indian fishermen with dipnets." Ever since the falls were covered, the feast has been held at a pre-arranged time.
