Up until the early 1900&#8217;s a wooded park stood between Hawthorne and Taylor, and Se 9th and 12th avenues. Today not a single remnant of it remains but Hawthorne Park was one the East side&#8217;s nicest and historic parks.
The land in that area was originally a land plot owned by James Stephens. He owned much [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=aprosperingcity.wordpress.com&blog=969579&post=90&subd=aprosperingcity&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

The boundaries of the different neighborhoods in SE have changed many times since the mid-1800s. Neighborhoods such as Sunnyside and Ladd&#8217;s Addition were plotted as real estate developments, similar to what happens in today&#8217;s suburbs. The difference is that these neighborhoods and others around Portland were built around streetcar. For example, when you look at [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=aprosperingcity.wordpress.com&blog=969579&post=68&subd=aprosperingcity&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Edit: I found a Sandborn map from 1924 which shows Kenilworth street. It is located just left of the mouse pointer.
If you look at the sidewalks South of Hawthorne on 28th Place, you will notice it says &#8220;Kenilworth Ave&#8221;.

		<description><![CDATA[ 
One of Hush Records’ strongest releases of late is Laura Gibson’s If You Come To Greet Me, her debut full-length.

Gibson pulls every last sweetness from her simple, unpretentious song constructions and melodies.  Her sense of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=aprosperingcity.wordpress.com&blog=969579&post=37&subd=aprosperingcity&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[    The first thing that strikes me about the Gejius album is how well it is put together. The packaging is a gorgeous Digipak, which is the new trend for good reason. Not only is there full color artwork but the inside cover includes the different technologies used to make the album.

There is this band from around here called Catfight! Ever heard of them? No me neither… but I’m sure everyone will soon. The band is just infectious.  I mean, they have all the right hooks to sing along to, the gritty White Stripes-y guitar, and their tracks are produced so damn well.

I am so glad this band meets the hype. More often than not, bands have friends in high places, get the hype going, people realize they aren’t good, and fade away. Mediocrity doesn’t fool everyone. The Shaky Hands are actually a damn good band. Believe it.
The Shaky Hand’s self titled debut record came out on [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=aprosperingcity.wordpress.com&blog=969579&post=9&subd=aprosperingcity&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

It may be old news to some, but to others this is an introduction to the Portland, Oregon band Small Sails. The band has been playing around town for quite a while with their unique blend of acoustic and electronic instruments, as well as a great live show with visuals. But anyone fortunate enough to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=aprosperingcity.wordpress.com&blog=969579&post=7&subd=aprosperingcity&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Writing reviews for bands based on their Myspace music is quite difficult. The artwork and packaging of a CD/Vinyl can give the listener an idea of who they are and their intentions. On the other hand, it doesn’t matter all that much. A band’s Myspace page can almost replace the album (without the good feeling [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=aprosperingcity.wordpress.com&blog=969579&post=4&subd=aprosperingcity&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
