Prohibited Pioneer Spirits
Did you know Portland's early days were built on the wealth made from saloons, gambling houses, and opium dens? The foundation of the city's success was found at the bottom of a glass.
One of the Northwest's most prominent port cities, Portland was built on the profit of vices- alcohol, gambling, opium, prostitution, kidnapping- and the list goes on. By the late 1800s, it was one of the most dangerous cities in the world and even the advent of Prohibition didn't infuse the community with a sense of morality. A bigger and more prosperous underworld was created, and some say the victims of Portland's past still haunt the historic buildings and dark alleyways of the city.
