After gold was discovered in 1848, Chinese miners, laundry- men, cooks, gardeners, merchants, and doctors migrated to California and the Northwest. Immigrants who settled in Oregon established “Old Chinatown” (1850-1905) which was centered on Southwest Second and Front Avenues. After the 1905 Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition and Ori- ental Fair brought hundreds of thousands of visitors to the Rose City and sparked a building boom, many Chinese merchants left the community they had built south of Burnside and reinvested in North- west Portland near Union Station, creating “New Chinatown” (1905- 1950). Chinese in Oregon were deep- ly impacted by federal exclusion laws, but they nevertheless built homes, commercial enterprises, and families whose legacies con- tinue today.
