Natural Grocers won't open on MLK in early 2017. Here's why.



Portland redevelopment officials touted an overly optimistic schedule when promoting a new city-subsidized commercial project -- prominently featuring Natural Grocers -- that they said would be built by January 2017.

As it turns out, the California developer in charge of the project doesn't even have to take control of the city-owned land until April 2017. Under such a scenario, construction wouldn't be complete until February 2018, a year later than anticipated.

Confusion about the timing of the project stems from conflicting dates included in public documents from last year, when the Portland Development Commission voted to approve its deal with Majestic Realty Co.

I like the size and the design. It fits in well without being boring. They certainly didn't go for the lowest cost solution.

It will be interesting to see what Venerable Properties has planned.

Portland’s Der Rheinlander to close after 53 years
The restaurant has been in the Mager family from the beginning



PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A German restaurant that has been in Portland for 53 years will be closing its doors sometime in the first quarter of 2017.

Der Rheinlander, owned by Guten Foods, announced on Tuesday it sold the building that houses the 50-year-old restaurant to Venerable Properties. The sale closes on Friday.

Employees will have the opportunity to stay on at the restaurant until it closes, and then they will be offered raises and positions at other Guten Foods restaurants.

“This decision didn’t happen overnight; we’ve been discussing it for a long time,” Guten Foods CEO Suzeanne Mager said. “I have bittersweet feelings about it, of course. But I feel it’s the right thing to do, especially considering today’s Portland food scene. It has been evolving, and so must we.”

I assuage the loss of Portland's character by reminding myself that a major earthquake could reduce much of this city to rubble in an eyeblink. Still, I almost wish for a recession if only to put a brake on this more gradual devastation.
