	HISTORIC CONTEXT STATEMENT
		Oregon City was incorporated in 1844, the first incorporated city west of the Rocky Mountains, as the number of immigrants was growing and Oregon City boasted 75 buildings.
		Oregon Territory was officially created in 1848 and Oregon City was designated as the Territory’s first capital, an honor it held until the capital was moved to Salem in 1852.
		Oregon City’s position as the hub of the Territory declined in the 1850s as the capital was moved to Salem and Portland surpassed it as a population and shipping center.

	Oregon City Bridge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Oregon City Bridge is a steel arch bridge that spans the Willamette River between Oregon City and West Linn, Oregon.
		In addition, it is the only bridge in Oregon to be encased in gunite, which protects it from corrosion due to the sulfur dioxide emissions from paper mills south of the bridge.
		The bridge was built as a replacement of a pedestrian suspension bridge constructed in 1888.

	Oregon Covered Bridges - Drift Creek Covered Bridge
		Originally built south of Lincoln City only 1.5 miles from the coast, the bridge was considered the oldest remaining covered bridge in Oregon.
		After the bridge was bypassed with a concrete span in the mid-1960s, Lincoln County passed an ordinance preserving the wooden structure as an historical memorial to the Lincoln County pioneers.
		In the pioneer spirit that this bridge represents and through hardship and strife, their monumental efforts resulted in the resurrection of the bridge which now stands in a small, beautiful park-like setting.

	Photo Album: The Bridges of Portland, Oregon - St. Johns Bridge (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Finished in 1931, the steel suspension St. Johns Bridge is arguably the most beautiful in the city, connecting North Portland to US-30 northwest of the city.
		Sadly, since the bridge lies a few miles west of the city, many visitors to Portland never see this marvelous structure, which is a designated historical landmark.
		Perhap the reason that Strauss is so often inaccurately credited with designing the St. Johns Bridge is that he did design another Oregon bridge, the Lewis and Clark Bridge (aka, Longview Bridge) across the Columbia River in 1930 [5].

	Bridge over poopy water (Jack Bog's Blog)
		Since voters have turned down the light rail line to Milwaukie/Oregon City in the past, I hope Mayor Bernard of Milwaukie calls for a vote on this issue to confirm his strong conviction that the voters who will help pay for this want it now.
		The "Caruthers" bridge is needed by both the proposed SE streetcar to complete the loop back to downtown AND the Light Rail line from Milwaukie, but the Streetcar folks expect the Light Rail project to pay for it.
		Let's use the old bridge to cap the freeway and install a bio-fuel gas station on one end and a bicycle rest stop on the other end with solar heated showers and a bioswale and organic smoothies.
