Lab 6 - Week 7 (Patrick Chew)

Portland, OR


I chose to create a series of maps on the Portland, Oregon area. I spent my summer at Nike, which is located just outside of Portland, so the area has a special place in my heart. Portland is full of good food and drink and has a very unique, distinctive culture. As of the 2010 census, approximately 583,776 people live in the city of Portland and approximately 2,260,000 people live in the Portland Metropolitan Area. Just outside is Portland is Mt. Hood, which hosts the only year-round snowboarding/skiing in the continental United States. The Willamette River runs straight through the center of the city. Portland is known as one of the greenest cities in the united states because of its use of public transportation and careful land-use planning.
