An 1892 view looking east from the tower of the former Oregonian Building in Portland, Oregon. The Willamette River and Mt. Hood are in the distance. Southwest Washington Street runs diagonally through both pages, and Alder Street is on the right. Most of the buildings have been replaced, but the west side of the nearly-completed Dekum Building at SW Third and Washington is evident in the right half of the photograph. In front of the Dekum Building is a rare view of the Washington Block at SW Fourth and Washington, a five-story building designed by architect Henry J. Hefty.
