The community was once known as Sandy, after the nearby Sandy River; Sandy post office was established in 1854 and closed in 1868.In 1873, the current city of Sandy in Clackamas County, which formerly named "Revenue", established a different Sandy post office that is still in operation.Troutdale was named by pioneer John Harlow for the trout pond in a dale near his house. Troutdale post office was founded in 1880. In 1920, a company called the "Bissinger Company", or "Bissinger Wool Pullery", built a firm and a water tower in the city, which are both standing and can both be seen today. The company was supposedly featured on aRipley's Believe it or Not! column because a cat was found in a stack of animal hides that the company was going to use for its products. The cat was taken care of and became the company's mascot. The cat lived a long and healthy life. The water tower is now known as the "Old Historic Water Tower".
