Historical Note
Bodley's Addition is a plot of land in southeast Portland, Oregon. As of 2019, it is bounded by SE Milwaukie Avenue, SE Clinton Street, SE 10th Avenue, and SE Brooklyn Street. The name is derived from Margeria G. Bodley (1852-1927) and Watson T. Bodley (1848-1936), who owned the property in the 1880s. In the 1890s, cigar manufacturer August F. Neunert (1837-1912) and his wife, Marie (1833-1901), owned property in the northern section of Bodley's Addition, which they later transferred to their daughter, Emma Neunert Lang (1869-1948).
