A colorized view of Portland’s waterfront, and the West Hills, 
Portland, Oregon, 1898.

“At least three of the buildings in this photo still stand: The United Congregational Church, which pokes up tall just left of center, the First Baptist Church at far right, and Pioneer Courthouse (which is the hardest to spot because you can see only the dome), it’s left of the Congregational Church. 
The taller building dead center is the old Oregonian building, where the newspaper was headquartered from the 1890s until the late 1940s. 
The cool building at right (almost behind First Baptist) with the interesting twin towers was Congregation Beth Israel, which burned in the 1920s. It then moved to its current location in NW Portland.”  John Killen, Former Journalist at The Oregonian
