Horse-Rings 5 Jan 2006 | 05:38 am
Horse-rings still exist in Portland--both on residential and business sidewalks. I guess someone thought this ring, across the street from the Pearl Bakery, could stand a little use.
Tunneling Through Trees 16 Nov 2005 | 10:36 am
Lest you think Portland does everything with aesthetics in mind, I offer this photo. If ever a city begged for burying wires, it must be Portland. Many old neighborhoods here have streets lines with g...
Bathtubs 15 Nov 2005 | 05:46 pm
Here's the backyard of Portland's own Rejuvenation--a store that sells original and replica hardware, lighting, furniture etc. You can tell it's a Portland company partly by the fact that they post an...
Another Reminder 27 Oct 2005 | 04:47 am
