Summary

Description
English: Plaque noting the "Great Plank Road" which connected Portland with the Tualatin Valley. Located in the South Park Blocks on the north side of Jefferson St, which leads to Canyon Road. It says
The Great Plank Road

First planks for the canyon road connecting Portland with the rich Tualatin Valley were laid near this spot in September 1851. As a community effort it brought farm produce to our docks and established Portland as a port and market for the old Oregon Country.
