Northwest District, Residential and retail neighborhood in Portland, United States.
Northwest District spans from the Tualatin Mountains to Interstate 405, containing dense rows of Craftsman houses and modern apartment buildings between NW 23rd Avenue.
Captain John H. Couch established the Alphabet District naming scheme in 1865, designating streets alphabetically from Burnside to Reed Street, creating an organized grid system.
NW 23rd Avenue presents clothing boutiques, independent theaters, restaurants, and retail establishments that reflect the neighborhood's contemporary urban character.
The Portland Streetcar NS Line connects Northwest District with downtown Portland, while multiple TriMet bus routes provide transportation throughout the neighborhood.
Television creator Matt Groening named several characters in The Simpsons after streets in this district, including Lovejoy and Quimby.
