Happy 35th anniversary to McMenamins’ Power Station at Edgefield!

When the historic Edgefield properties faced the wrecking ball, Troutdale Historical Society was proud to help stand up and fight for their future. THS and McMenamins have been saving history together for nearly 40 years, and we’re grateful that this remarkable place became a gathering spot instead of a very large pile of “remember when?”

The Power Station opened October 17, 1991, giving the old Multnomah County Poor Farm’s mechanical room and laundry a fresh start. After years of keeping the place warm and the laundry moving, it found a new calling: pints, popcorn, movies, meetings, and some very cozy guest rooms.

The original brochure promised hardwood floors, shared baths, and no phones or televisions. A stay where you had to relax, enjoy the quiet, and talk to the people you came with. Revolutionary!

McMenamins Edgefield, thank you for being such amazing custodians of history and historic properties and reminding people why history matters! Here’s to 35 years of the Power Station, and many more years of keeping Edgefield’s stories, buildings, and tots alive!
