<DIV>Thanks for replying. As children my brothers and I played and explored on Mt. Tabor:and know the area well. I have the "Geographic Names" but it didn't answer my original question as to when Montavilla was actually incorporated with Portland.</DIV>

<BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: blue 2px solid"><FONT face=Arial>"Montavilla was established September 21, 1891 but for many years operated as a station of the Portland office. The name Montavilla is a contraction of Mt. Tabor Villa. The Mt. Tabor Villa addition to the City of Portland was platted June 11, 1889. The name was cumbersome and the place was immediately known as Montavilla, and has been ever since. The addition of Montavilla, platted July 13, 1904, was named long after the name Montavilla was applied to that part of Portland." ---Oregon Geographic Names 1992 </FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
