  If anyone is interested I have the map of Vanport with all the streets laid out as well as the nursery, fire hall, and other  items in the city.  I also have several newspaper articles.  I visited Terri the manager what is now Delta Park Raceway.  She was featured in several papers about three years ago as she has been recovering items from the flood that have worked their way up through the mud.  It was interesting to see the bottles, rings, vases, lipstick containers, a jar of jam (still sealed with wax) and various other items.  I believe several of the original items that she found were cast in some way and used in the light rail stations.  Although my parents did not live there was born in Vanport in 1948 and have only found one other person that was also born there, however she was born in 1946.
