The story
The Moreland opened on September 10, 1925, in the Sellwood-Moreland area of southeast Portland and was named for the district, which was developed by Judge J. C. Moreland. It began as a vaudeville and silent film house. Sources disagree on who designed it: public broadcasting credits one architect, while two local archivists credit a different firm. It has stayed a single-screen theater and is one of the few historic single-screen movie houses left in the city. It celebrated its centennial in 2025.
