Island City

Among the cities of northeastern Oregon, Island City stands out for its place on the floor of the Grande Ronde Valley, close to the Grande Ronde River. The Blue Mountains form a defining presence to the east, while open farmland gives this small Union County community a distinctly rural setting despite its proximity to La Grande. Island City’s name recalls the settlement’s early isolation by seasonal high water, when it could appear like an island in the valley. It remains part of the agricultural and service landscape around La Grande rather than a separate urban centre.
