McMinnville: ORE99W at 2nd St
Built around William T. Newby’s 1846 land claim, McMinnville grew into the county seat of Yamhill County. Its compact centre is anchored by the junction of Oregon Route 99W and Second Street, a principal commercial corridor through the Willamette Valley. The South Yamhill River runs through the city, while the Coast Range rises to the west. McMinnville is closely associated with Oregon wine country and is home to Linfield University. Downtown’s preserved historic commercial buildings and broad, tree-lined Second Street give the city a settled small-city character, with independent shops, tasting rooms and restaurants reinforcing its role as a regional centre.

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.
