Does anybody have info regarding the upcoming Portland Spaces magazine that Randy Gragg is doing?

January 2008 (according to their full page advertisement in the new issue of Portland Monthly)

Sounds like it's going to be really cool. Portland needs this after the Oregonian decided that it no longer cared to write about architecture. And what now? Leeson, Rivera and Ryan Frank: three good news writers, but who just don't get the cultural component of development and architecture. Too bad isn't it? That Dylan Rivera's story about Portland development two months ago included no renderings was telling.

oooh! a new Portland mag! Shiny?

From what I have seen, yes. Very nicely done. It appears to be a first class effort in every way.

If you like Dwell, MSL, Portland Monthly, etc.... you'll like Portland Spaces.

Not much to see publically yet, but there's a teaser up:

I'm very excited to see this! Are we thinking it will be more like Arcade or more like Dwell ... ?

[BrG]

It's graphically much more like Dwell, than it is Arcade. It's not my place to say much more than that.

Recall that the publication is from the same family of magazines as Portland and Seattle Monthly.

Hmm, I have a subscr to Dwell and Metropolis Mag. Should fit well into that niche I hope.
