131- Vancouver (Washington) That Is
Manage episode 397481630 series 2967248
Vancouver is a city in Clark County in southwest Washington state. It is situated close to the Willamette River's confluence with the Columbia River on the North Bank of the Columbia. Chinook Indians were the original inhabitants of the area.
George Vancouver, a British explorer who charted the Northwest coast in 1792, is honored by the city's name. Vancouver, as the oldest non-Indian settlement in the Pacific Northwest, probably takes greater pride in its past than most other cities. The 1849 United States Army Barracks, including Officer's Row, the shipways from the World War II Kaiser shipyards, the 1825 Hudson's Bay Company's Fort Vancouver, and Pearson Field—the oldest continuously operational airfield in the West—are all within a short stroll from the city center.
