Bridge City
A breathtaking sunrise lights the thriving eastside skyline, illuminating the St. Johns Bridge, the Fremont Bridge, and the Steel Bridge. A dozen bridges join the east and west sides of Portland, Oregon. The oldest, the Hawthorne, is the longest operating vertical-lift bridge in the USA. The newest, Tillikum Crossing, is named for the Native people who have always lived along the Willamette River. Above them rises Mt. Hood, a silent, sleeping volcano that keeps watch over “Bridge City.”
