The city of Portland, Oregon was founded near the
Willamette and Columbia Rivers in 1845. Originally known as "the
Clearing", the city was named after a coin toss between Asa Lovejoy and Francis
W. Pettygrove, with Pettygrove emerging as the winner. Both had wanted to
name the city after their hometown, with Lovejoy championing Boston, and
Pettygrove wanting Portland.
The city has emerged as the 3rd most
populous city in the Pacific Northwest, and is often recognized as the "Greenest
City in America" due to it's proactive stance on environmental issues.
