    HIGHLIGHTS News Events Gifts at Work Donor Profiles Tales of the City New Visiting Professorship Addresses How Urbanization Changes Our Lives Why is a word that means "worse than urban" used to describe the tree-lined neighborhoods that ring most of our cities? What did a horse-drawn wagon on rails have to do with the way our central business districts developed? Why have most department stores moved from downtowns to outlying shopping malls? And why should we care about the answers to these questions? "Our closest contact with government is our local communities," answers UO Professor of History Emerita Louise Carroll Wade . "Yet we know so little about them when they were established, how they got the authority to govern themselves, how they have changed over time." After she retired several years ago, Wade wanted to make sure that someone would continue to teach University of Oregon students about American cities, as she had for much of her twenty-three-year career at the UO. With a gift of $1.2 million one of the largest ever from a faculty member Wade established the

    Masao Matsuoka, MA Graduate, U of Oregon, Geography
    and many University of Oregon Geographers, seminar students,
    independent study students, and local townspeople. Since 1979 Eugene and Kakegawa have been Sister Cities , yet little information exists that allows direct understanding and comparison of each city. This website seeks to provide information and images in an easy to read format that summarizes the urban places of Eugene, Oregon, USA . It is our hope that someday a similar site created by our friends in Kakegawa, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan will be available. We hope that you find this information helpful and useful to your understanding. Welcome to Eugene, Oregon! This world wide web site in English shows information about Eugene. It contains many photographic images, maps, text, and links to related sites. Some pages on this site are being translated into Japanese. Kakegawa is one of four Sister Cities paired with Eugene, Oregon. The other three cities, Katmandu, Nepal; Chinju, Korea; and Irkutsk, Russia are also in Asia. This makes some sense, when you think about it, with Oregon's orientation to the Pacific Rim.

    Oregon's urban growth boundaries were developed to protect farm and forest lands from urban encroachment. Portland's UGB, adopted in 1979 and covering 24 cities and the urban portions of three counties, included just over 232,000 acres of land, or 363 square miles. It was designed to include 20 years of growth. By 1999 sharp boundaries between urban and rural land uses are evident in parts of the metropolitan area. Discussion in Portland has revolved mainly around containing sprawl and managing residential development, with less emphasis on the effects of urbanization on farm and forest lands outside the UGB.
    In this study we analyze the impact of the urban growth boundary on rural landscape change in Portland, Oregon and Clark County, Washington and assess the importance of rural and agricultural landscapes to residents of the rural-urban fringe. The kinds of questions we are interested in addressing include: How does the value of rural landscape as urban amenity vary between urban and rural areas? Between areas already experiencing significant land use change and those beginning to feel the pressure of development? Between a highly regulated land use environment such as that found on the Oregon side of the Greater Portland Metropolitan area and the more mixed use landscape of Clark County, Washington? Finally, how can this information serve policy makers and people concerned about the volatile issues of urban sprawl and the regulatory solutions to problems of urban growth?

    OR The origin of the state's name is unknown, but one theory holds that it may have come from the Wisconsin River, shown in a 1715 French map as "Ouaricon." In 1859, Oregon was admitted as the 33rd state to the Union. Spanish sailors in search of a northwest passage were the first Europeans to see what is known today as Oregon. Settlers traveling in wagon trains over the Oregon Trail in the 1840s followed the missionaries who had come in the 1830s. Oregon is a state of great natural beauty with places such as Crater Lake National Park and the Columbia River Gorge. Oregon is known for its vast evergreen forests and i ts mountains, covered in forests, make Oregon the leading state in the production of wood products.

    The Regions of the United States New England The Mid-Atlantic The South The Midwest ... The West Americans often speak of their country as one of several large regions. These regions are cultural units rather than governmental units formed by history and geography and shaped by the economics, literature and folkways that all the parts of a region share. What makes one region different from another? A region's multicultural heritage as well as distinct demographic characteristics like age and occupation also make regions different and special. Within several regions, language is used differently and there are strong dialects. There are also differences in outlook and attitude based on geography.

    New England has played a dominant role in American history. Until well into the 19th century, New England was the country's cultural and economic center. The earliest European settlers of New England were English Protestants who came in search of religious liberty. They gave the region its distinctive political format town meetings (an outgrowth of meetings held by church elders) in which citizens gathered to discuss issues of the day. Town meetings still function in many New England communities today and have been revived as a form of dialogue in the national political arena. New England is also important for the cultural contribution it has made to the nation. The critic Van Wyck Brooks called the creation of a distinctive American literature, in the first half of the 19th century, "the flowering of New England." Education is another of the region's strongest legacies. The cluster of top-ranking universities and colleges in

    Information-Age Model
    Suffers Through Crisis

    By J OEL K OTKIN

    ack in the 1980s, well before there was talk nationwide of an "urban renaissance," Portland, Ore., was widely seen as a kind of model turnaround city. Its downtown was among the first to come to life, large portions of the middle class actually stayed in the comparatively safe and well-run city, while its suburbs bristled with technology plants and bright new housing tracks. It was a place that, by all accounts, seemed to have negotiated the economic shift from agricultural to information as well as any in the nation. Yet today Portland, both the city and the region, which boasts roughly 1.8 million people, is suffering a crisis that threatens the future of this once buoyant, expanding Northwest market. Much of the problem lies with the residue of the "tech-wreck" of the past two years; having enjoyed some of the most rapid expansion of technology-based business in the country over the 1990s, Portland and Oregon seemed poised for a powerful "correction." Today that correction is hitting the region hard. Manufacturing, largely in technology-related fields, remains a large part of the economic base of the region and state, constituting 22% of all employment, compared to 17% for the nation. As a result, Oregon's unemployment rate of roughly 8% is among the worst in the nation.
