Water falls Oregon - WILLAMETTE FALLS - did you know?

Willamette Falls is the second-largest waterfall by volume in North America. From time immemorial through today, it has been a gathering place for Native Americans. In the 1800s, it was the birthplace of the Oregon Territory and a center of industrial activity. When the Blue Heron Paper Company closed in 2011, community leaders recognized a unique opportunity * to bring new life to this special place. Oregonians have come together to shape the future of the privately-owned 22-acre site. Thanks to agreements with the property owner and PGE, public access to Willamette Falls is being designed and built, to provide visitors with spectacular, close up views of the river and falls in historic Oregon City. #history #oregon #water #travel
