Why are the Woodlawn neighborhood and the Ladd's neighborhood strees crooked? Why is Couch Street not pronounced "Couch Street"? Where were the streetcar tracks before they were torn out? How did the parks get named? Come ride on an historic tour of Portland with a local historian leaving from one crooked neighborhood (Ladds Addition) headed to another (Woodlawn). We will make little stops for discussion several times along the way. The trip will end at Woodlawn Park which is very near Good Neighbor Pizzaria on NE Deakum and 8th.
