The Disappearance Of Vanport, Oregon – And The Emergence of A Venture To Stop Flood Disasters
Descendants of the Vanport, Oregon flood are working to build software that increases preparedness for floods, decreases insurance losses, and expands buildable land.
Portland, Oregon, 6th June 2024, ZEX PR WIRE, In a bid to prevent future flood disasters, descendants of the Vanport, Oregon flood are developing advanced software aimed at improving flood preparedness. This initiative not only aims to mitigate insurance losses but also to increase the availability of buildable land.
“Being prepared for a flood makes all the difference in the world. I was shocked to hear that many Vanport residents were informed on the day of the flood, that the levee system would not fail them. I think the challenge here is preparedness – and with all of our technology, we should have better-prepared cities. I think Vanport Technologies has what it takes to get it done,” said newly appointed Public Relations representative for Vanport Technologies, Elizabeth Gessesse.
Vanport Technologies has emerged as a pioneering force in floodplain mapping technology, drawing inspiration from the tragic flood of 1948 that engulfed Vanport, Oregon. Recognizing the critical need for advanced tools to mitigate the impact of such natural disasters, the company has dedicated itself to developing cutting-edge mapping technology to provide accurate and real-time flood risk assessments and address other floodplain challenges.
This technology not only contributes to proactive disaster management but also honors the legacy of the past by striving to prevent similar catastrophes in vulnerable regions. Through their innovative approach, Vanport Technologies is at the forefront of creating solutions that safeguard communities against the devastating consequences of floods.
The flood of 1948 that devastated Vanport, Oregon remains a poignant chapter in the region’s history, marking one of the most catastrophic events in the Pacific Northwest. Vanport, a hastily constructed city near Portland, emerged during World War II as a temporary housing solution for the influx of workers supporting the war effort. Built in 1942, Vanport housed a diverse population, including African Americans who migrated to the area seeking employment in shipyards.
The catastrophe unfolded on May 30, 1948, when the Columbia River, swollen by heavy snowmelt and continuous rainfall, breached its levees. The town, situated on low-lying ground and vulnerable to natural disasters, proved unable to withstand the force of the surging waters. The breach led to the sudden and catastrophic flooding of Vanport, submerging the town under several feet of water within hours.
One of the primary factors contributing to the severity of the disaster was the lack of proper infrastructure and planning in the construction of Vanport. The town was constructed hastily and on an inadequate foundation, with minimal consideration given to potential environmental risks. When the Columbia River surged beyond its banks, the inadequacies of the levee system became painfully apparent, resulting in widespread devastation.
Tragically, the flood claimed the lives of at least 15 people, displaced thousands, and left the majority of Vanport’s buildings in ruins. The aftermath of the disaster exposed the vulnerabilities of makeshift communities and underscored the importance of thoughtful urban planning and infrastructure development. The flood also disproportionately affected the African American population, as they were concentrated in the low-lying areas of the town.
The destruction of Vanport had lasting implications for the residents who lost their homes and belongings. Many were forced to relocate, scattering throughout the Portland metropolitan area. The incident prompted a reevaluation of emergency preparedness and urban planning in the region, leading to improvements in flood control measures and infrastructure development.
The flood of 1948 and the subsequent demise of Vanport serve as a somber reminder of the importance of thorough planning and infrastructure resilience in the face of natural disasters. The event left an indelible mark on the collective memory of the Pacific Northwest, prompting a commitment to learning from the past to build more resilient communities in the future.

Revolutionizing Cinema: MDOM Token Introduces Blockchain-Powered Mini Multiplex Ownership
In a groundbreaking move to redefine how people invest in the entertainment industry, MovieDOM Token (MDOM) has introduced a first-of-its-kind blockchain-based investment model for mini multiplex cinema ownership. Designed to bridge the gap between real-world entertainment assets and decentralized finance, MDOM empowers everyday individuals to own a stake in emerging markets’ rapidly growing cinema infrastructure—beginning with 100-seater twin-screen mini multiplexes across India.
The Entertainment Investment Revolution
Large corporations, production houses, and a handful of elite investors have long monopolised the traditional entertainment industry. Smaller contributors and independent enthusiasts often have no access to owning a part of the cinematic ecosystem, even when their passion fuels its growth.
MovieDOM Token (MDOM) is changing that narrative. Using blockchain technology, MDOM tokenizes real-world cinema infrastructure, allowing users from anywhere worldwide to fractionally invest in mini multiplexes, participate in governance, earn rewards, and enjoy passive income through profit-sharing.
Real Cinemas, Real Ownership
Unlike theoretical or purely digital projects, MDOM’s model is backed by physical infrastructure. The first rollout includes a network of twin-screen, 100-seater mini multiplexes across underserved cities in India, where demand for affordable yet high-quality movie experiences is booming.
Each mini multiplex project is partially funded by MDOM token holders, giving them ownership rights, dividend eligibility, and future asset appreciation. Through transparent smart contracts, users receive a share of profits generated by the theaters, including ticket sales, ad revenue, food & beverage sales, and more.
Blockchain-Powered Transparency
All transactions and ownership stakes are recorded on-chain, eliminating manipulation or ambiguity. The smart contract framework ensures that revenues are distributed fairly and automatically. Token holders can also stake their MDOM tokens and participate in key decisions, such as approving new multiplex locations, project timelines, and vendor collaborations, via a decentralized governance system (DAO).
Global Access, Local Impact
With entry points as low as $1, MDOM is making entertainment infrastructure investments accessible to anyone, from college students and cinema lovers to tech-savvy investors. While the first phase targets India’s entertainment-hungry regions, future expansions will include Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
This inclusive model is not just about investing—it’s about co-building the future of entertainment, where the audience becomes a true stakeholder.
Trust Backed by Security
To ensure credibility and safety, MDOM has been fully audited by Hacken.io, a leading blockchain security firm. This audit reinforces the platform’s commitment to transparency, trust, and long-term sustainability for its community.
MDOM Presale Starting Soon!
The much-awaited MDOM Token Presale is launching soon! Early participants will gain exclusive access to purchase tokens at the most favorable rates before they hit the open market. This is your chance to be among the first to invest in a project that fuses entertainment with cutting-edge blockchain technology. Stay tuned for official presale dates, whitelist registration, and exciting bonus rewards for early supporters.
Join the Entertainment Investment Revolution
MDOM Token isn’t just another crypto token—it’s a ticket into a new era of Web3-powered cinema ownership. Whether you’re a film lover, tech enthusiast, or investor seeking real-world utility, MDOM invites you to be part of the story.
