That's Park Ave. and Alder St., where that store just opened a new location (across the street from Rich's Cigars.)

GREAT thread! Shows what makes this city so awesome in nice weather.

Fantastic and very comprehensive! Thanks for sharing!!!

Great shots! A very clean and "Green" city. The Pacific Northwest has some of the Country's most stunning looking cities.

Thanks for the shots realm! You got in some very cool shots of downtown and the pearl. I look forward to more

Awesome thread! Looks like a great city at street level. Still never been there. Someday

also, I though pita pits were only in b.c.

Yeah, I saw that Pita Pit too and had to look where it's from because I had never seen another one until this thread. In fact, I had never even seen one period until I moved to downtown Charleston, SC. It's a very popular late night after bar snack spot here 3000 miles from BC. According to Wikipedia, Pita Pit was founded far away from both BC and SC in Ontario.

^ There's a Pita Pit in my hometown of Stillwater, OK. Population 40,000.

I really love the first 5 or 6 shots. This one caught my attention. Where was this taken from? I-5?

That looks to be 405 just south of the Freemont Bridge.

The Kelly's Olympian storefront is one of my favorites.

Great pics! What an awesome city, I have only been there twice but it was impacting both times. Portland has a great vibe and a feeling of friendliness about it. A good mix of development coupled with the green landscape as well. Nice thread.

PDX City-State · #38 Posted **Jul 23, 2008, 10:28 PM**

Great thread. Makes me want to move to Portland. Oh wait...I already live in Portland. Makes me want to stay!

CapitalCity · #39 Posted **Jul 24, 2008, 1:30 AM**

zilfondel, when you say AIA, do you mean Athletes in Action?

Anyway, great Portland thread!

Upward · #40 Posted **Aug 23, 2008, 6:41 PM**

Nice pics!

I'm visiting Portland next week, and I've searched out some photo threads to get in the mood.
