Portland Oregon's Montavilla Neighborhood

By
Real Estate Agent with M Realty

The Montavilla Neighborhood celebrates it’s 120th birthday this year. Established in 1889, the Montavilla Neighborhood quickly developed into a thriving community of small businesses and growing subdivisions. The name Montavilla came to be the popular term by the land surveyors platting out subdivisions since the original name of Mt. Tabor Villa Addition was a little too cumbersome. Today, Montavilla is still a thriving community (the 2nd largest neighborhood in Portland) that hosts many small businesses, a popular community center, and it’s very own farmer’s market. Montavilla is in SE Portland bordered by the North Tabor (previously Center), Madison South, Hazelwood, Powellhurst Gilbert and Mt. Tabor Neighborhoods.
