Portland: Sellwood Bridge - Willamette River

1 45.46°, -122.66° NW
About location

Sellwood Bridge lies along the Willamette River in south Portland, linking the Sellwood district with the wooded west bank and Oregon Route 43. The broad river here forms a calm, green-edged corridor through one of Portland’s established residential areas, with forested slopes rising beyond the water. Completed in 2016, the present bridge replaced a 1925 crossing that had become structurally obsolete. Sellwood retains the character of a former independent community, annexed by Portland in 1893, while the river remains central to local recreation, boating and everyday travel between the city’s east and west sides.

Region Oregon

The Cascade Range and high desert define much of Oregon, shaping a state where forestry, farming, hydropower and outdoor recreation are central to regional life. The Columbia River forms much of its northern border, while the Willamette Valley supports fertile farmland between the Cascades and the Coast Range. Oregon’s Pacific shore is marked by long beaches, headlands and working coastal towns, and Crater Lake preserves the deep caldera of Mount Mazama in the south. Oregon City is associated with the historic end of the Oregon Trail, a reminder of the migration that transformed the nineteenth-century American West.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
