Discover the history and architecture of Portland's first commercial district, where over 100 years ago ocean-going ships dropped their passengers and goods to the new city. Learn about Old Town's "Blazing Center" which hasn't changed much since the days it was originally filled with brothels, bars and gambling houses.

We'll see some survivors of the "Cast Iron Era" and also swing through Portland's Chinatown.... that isn't really Chinatown anymore. Like many neighborhoods in Portland, this district is changing with the times.
