ESTACADA PDX SHUTTLE AIRPORT

Estacada, Oregon PDX shuttle airport

Estacada

$ 80 00
  • Zip code: 97023

Estacada /ˌɛstəˈkeɪdə/ is a city in Clackamas County, Oregon, United States, about 30 miles (48 km) southeast of Portland. The population was 2695 at the 2010 census.
History
The Estacada post office opened in February 1904 and the city was incorporated in May 1905. The community formed as a camp for workers building a hydroelectric dam on the nearby Clackamas River that was to supply Portland with electricity.  At the time, the river was relatively inaccessible by road, forcing the Oregon Power Railway Company to build a railway to the vicinity of the river to transport crews to the river for the construction of the dam. After the construction of the Hotel Estacada, the town became a weekend destination on the railroad line for residents of Portland. During the week, the train carried freight and work crews to and from Portland. Following the development of the dams, the city became a hub for the logging industry. In the early 20th century, a trolley line connected the town with downtown Portland. The railway line has been removed and there is no longer rail service to Estacada.

Name

The origin of the city’s name is disputed. One explanation is that the city’s name is a corruption of the names of a civic leader’s daughters, Esther and Katie, however, there is no evidence of their existence. Another theory states that:
Estacado is a Spanish word and it means “staked out” or “marked with stakes”. It was first suggested by George Kelly as a name for the town site at a meeting of the Oregon Water Power Townsite Company directors on December 27, 1903. Kelly had selected the name at random from a U.S. map showing Llano Estacado in Texas. If Kelly’s suggestion had not been drawn from the hat, the town could have been named Rochester, Lowell or Lynn. The name Estacada is also used in Arizona.

When Perry wanted to take on a new challenge, his parents moved to Maupin and took over operation of the ferry. The ferry was later owned be W.E. Hunt. East Maupin was referred to as Hunt’s Ferry for many years after the ferry was gone.
The Deschutes Railroad War took off in 1908. Hill’s Oregon Trunk Railway, building up the west side of the river eventually reached the current site of Maupin and designated it “Maupin’s Ferry” on the maps. Running a little behind, Harriman’s Deschutes Railroad, building on the east side of the river, designated his side as “Hunt’s Ferry”.
When W.H. Staats first platted the town in 1908, he named it Maupin’s Ferry. The 1909 plat and the first Post Office used the name Maupin. The railroads arrived in 1911 and the first vehicle bridge was built in 1912, ending the need for a ferry.
In 1921, a huge fire decimated much of Maupin. As part of the rebuilding process, and as a way to better organize fire protection and build a water system, Maupin was incorporated as a city in 1922.
