{"product_id":"vanishing-portland-9780738558301","title":"Vanishing Portland","description":"Portland at the end of World War II was an international port and a powerhouse of the timber and shipbuilding industries. Oregon s largest city grew and changed in the decades that followed, adding new industries and population. It also endured reductions in shipbuilding capacity, a devastating flood, a declining timber industry, urban renewal, freeway construction, and social change. By the 1990s, a wave of globalization and big-box retail marketing swelled shipping at the city s port and swept away a surprising number of Portland s businesses, which remain in the fond memories of Portlanders. A few of these memorable icons include the stores Meier and Frank, J. K. Gill, Payless Drug, and Sprouse-Reitz; the restaurants Henry Theile, Jolly Joan, Tik Tok, Yaw s Top Notch, and Waddle s; the Jantzen Beach Amusement Park; the Portland Hotel; the Broadway, Fox, and Orpheum theaters; Henry Weinhard s brewery; the Ramblin Rod television show; and Portland Wrestling.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing (SC)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/16\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780738558301\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 127\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.23h x 6.52w x 0.34d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2009 pg. 83\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ray Bottenberg, Jeanna Bottenberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39893719580853,"sku":"9780738558301","price":21.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_dba05e68-5701-411d-b2f8-18883de92d2f.jpg?v=1619540398","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/vanishing-portland-9780738558301","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
