Division Then and Now

I found this early 1900s photo of 60th and Division (looking east) on the City of Portland Archives website. The pump house and stairs are still there, but no trough for livestock and the reservoir is now a retirement home.

This once quiet country road is now a four lane highway that cuts South Tabor off from Mt. Tabor Park and makes access to West bound buses risky. Last summer during the Movie in the Park when we posted signs and escorted pedestrians at the 68th Street crosswalk even a City of Portland police car failed to stop. 

If you care about safety on SE Division, come to the open house on Wednesday, March 7th. Let's reclaim access to one of the loveliest public parks in the city and help make Division safer for everyone.
