History
TheEstacadapost office opened in February 1904 and the city was incorporated in May 1905. The community formed as a camp for workers building ahydroelectricdam on the nearbyClackamas Riverthat was to supplyPortlandwith electricity. At the time, the river was relatively inaccessible by road, forcing theOregon Power Railway Companyto build a railway to the vicinity of the river to transport crews to the river for the construction of the dam. After the construction of the Hotel Estacada, the town became a weekend destination on the railroad line for residents of Portland. During the week, the train carried freight and work crews to and from Portland. Following the development of the dams, the city became a hub for theloggingindustry. In the early 20th century, a trolley line connected the town with downtown Portland. The railway line has been removed and there is no longer rail service toEstacada.

Name
Estacadois a Spanish word and it means "staked out" or "marked with stakes". It was first suggested by George Kelly as a name for the town site at a meeting of theOregonWater Power Townsite Company directors on December 27, 1903. Kelly had selected the name at random from a U.S. map showing Llano Estacado in Texas. If Kelly's suggestion had not been drawn from the hat, the town could have been named Rochester, Lowell or Lynn. The name Estacada is also used in Arizona.
