Property Location

The neighborhood where The Porter is located, now called the Fountain District, began in the 19th century as a neighborhood of Jewish and Italian immigrants. This neighborhood adjacent to the Willamette River was filled with delicatessens, mercantiles, synagogues, residences and entertainment with the Portland Civic Auditorium. The Porter?s Portland Exchange market, Neapolitan wood fired pizza and restaurant offerings echo those vibrant ethnic food purveyors of long ago. As was the case with many cities, the neighborhood went into steep decline by the 1950s. To counter urban decline, more than 60 years ago this neighborhood began two decades of urban renewal. The highlight of this effort culminated in a public space designed by internationally renowned urban architect Lawrence Halprin, and comprised of interconnected walkways, plazas and sequence of fountains. The fountains called The Sequence are designed to emulate the Cascade Mountain Range watershed beginning with the Source and culminating at the Ira Keller Fountain. Ada Louise Huxtable, the famed New York Times architecture critic, wrote in 1970 that The Sequence was ?one of the most important urban spaces since the Renaissance.? One of Lawrence Halprin?s last works was the Franklin D. Roosevelt Memorial in Washington, D.C. With such accolades, it is fitting that more than 50 years after The Sequence was completed in Portland, The Porter?s neighborhood is located is named the Fountain District in honor of its most distinct feature. Today, the neighborhood is equally as vibrant, surrounded by the theater & arts district, premiere dining options & shopping, just two blocks from Tom McCall's Waterfront Park where the festivals and events are activated throughout the year, and still home to the Sequence.
