It was the capital of the Oregon Territory from its establishment in 1848 until 1851 and competed with Portland for early dominance in the area.

Oregon City was also the site of the Beaver Coins Mint, which produced the short-lived independent Oregon Territory currency in 1849.

According to a Lake Oswego resident, it was “a stopping place, a sort of relay station for boats both large and small, plying up and down the river between Astoria and Champoeg.”

The bridge connects the Rose Quarter and Lloyd District in the east to the Old Town Chinatown neighborhood in the west.
