No mention of POWELL'S???!?!?! Also, the McMenamin's brewpubs are something to check out- they have a knack for rescuing old buildings and making really distinctive restaurants out of them- and more! The former county poor farm (Edgefield) is now a full complex with hotel/resort, restaurants, brewery, winery, distillery, etc etc. A derelict elementary school (Kennedy School) has become a hotel where you sleep in an old classroom, as well as community center, movie theatre, meeting rooms, several restaurants, bars, brewery, and even a soaking pool! There's a former wedding/funeral chapel (Chapel Pub) with the bar in the main nave, The Crystal Ballroom, etc etc...Similar flavor, but all different! And ignore the naysayers. Portland is 145 sq miles. 4 blocks of protesters downtown is scarcely a blip on the radar. The homeless problem is no worse that other cities of similar size, especially on the temperate West Coast. And if you come in the rainy season, bring a parka, not an umbrella. An umbrella marks you as an outsider. :-)

Hey, if you are in Portland during the weekend also check out the Portland Saturday Market. It's on the waterfront and is a huge market that's been around for something like 45 years. It is full of local artists in the area and is the perfect place to get gifts or souvenirs. There is also usually pretty good food! Also, skip Voodoo and go to Pips doughnuts (or do both) and don't forget to get the chai at pips. Also, check out Northwest 23rd. Its a great street to walk down and has great food.

Maybe Portland is for you, and honestly hope you’ll enjoy it here. But with more than 100 straight days of riots, decriminalized drugs, 800% increase in shootings since last year, and revolving door justice system, I don’t see what Portland has to offer a contributing member of society that can’t be found somewhere else cheaper, cleaner, and safer.

Currently, the Roxy changed to to closing daily at 10pm. Don't know if this will change back post-pandemic.

Voodoo Donuts is certainly unique and worth checking out, but personally I think Pip's Donuts is much better

I moved from Seattle to OKC, while OKC has zero naturally beauty except insane sunrises and sunsets there are two big lakes within the city and a river and a ton of good food. OKC reminds me of Portland as far as live music, breweries, NBA, and tons of great local food.
