Portland’s history began in 1843 when business partners Wiliam Overton and Asa Lovejoy filed to claim the land on the west bank of the Willamette River in Oregon Country. In 1845 the name of Portland was chosen for this community by a coin toss and the city was incorporated on the 8th of February 1851. Portland is best-known for its hipster and crunchy behaviour; however, the city was known historically as a shipping port with a strong affinity for strip clubs. Some popular landmarks in Portland include; Pittock Mansion, Portland Japanese Garden, Oregon Zoo, Lan Su Chinese Garden, International Rose Test Garden, Washington Park, and several others.
