But what are those different colored supposed bike lock-up spots supposed to do? I suppose if you study them enough you can see a piece of hardware represented ("advertising"!) or maybe figure out how to lock to them. But they're just "noise" in this chaotic sidewalk. Where is this?
Love that low-angle rendering!
The current pilot in SE has both.
Only 3 stories? Are they threatened by Design Review, or ??
Also they subscribe to a service that just reframes someone's post, and asks "what do you think about this project?" or "what business would you like to see in this vacant building?". All to drive more traffic on the site, even if it's meaningless chatter!
the funny thing is that NextDoor, which used to be very local (East Richmond, e.g.), kept expanding the geography of where you got posts from. It's no longer limited to your block, but appears to be notices from all over the city and county, and including from Vancouver.
Clearly youre not on NextDoor enough.
Rose City Park has, it seems, been this way for the 20 years I've been active in land use and transportation. (And I think Bike Portland certainly is useful in presenting the issues)
I wonder if the Eastmoreland course land was owned by developer of Eastmoreland , and they gave it to city of city promised to build a course there (Saving developer cost of doing it)??
You like the "bow" (and arrow) wire supports?
His best use case for the Walgreen's at Chavez/Belmont is... a parking lot?? It could be 150 apartment homes, (like is planned for Chavez and Division). More people get to access the multiple businesses on Belmont, plus transit, and less people who's only choice is driving. This is 1995 thinking.
And best would be a Portland Loo that stays there for a while. The one at SE 11th and Oak, by the new housing there, was closed after a couple of years, and has now been removed. It's like any new loo needs a strong advocate to support it.
Yes, but also swales where needed.
Or put trees in the street, where the parking would be, (or between parking), like PBOT is experimenting with in SE Duke St. This way you'd get wider trees and more shade out of the deal. www.portland.gov/transportati...
Peek and peak!
It's white in a dark grey circle. Yes, what is he thinking of.....
I’ve admired that one, (26th) as well as the one near Salmon and 29th. Easy basement access!
Benson HS just got desire line paths to the entrance after 109 years of walking up the lawn.
Will there be a monthly review to see how much "art" each "artist" has produced and if they still qualify?
Sorry to hear:(
So ICE and other agencies are just ignoring building codes? Is there an occupancy requirements for "detention facilities" or do they just not call it that on the building application (or not apply at all?)
Blanket upzoning of closer-in walkable areas instead!
"Safety" matches! That you could only strike on the box, not on a random piece of concrete?
Is this to provide stacking for the drop-off lanes?
Take a look at Eyes on Broadway down the street!
And that new school (Kellog Middle School) presents a closed, doorless facade to Powell Blvd. Instead, the entrance is down the side street, so it can have a large drop-off lane and temporary parking that students who walk there have to navigate through.
So sorry to hear that! Hope you start recovering soon1
And no one even talks about electric trolley buses (like Seattle, SF, etc.). Removes need to store energy in the bus & haul battery weight or hydrogen around. Yes, more wire maintenance but less bus maintenence.
There are a couple of buildings on DivisionPDX where g.f. Windows have become de facto residential, by adding floor to ceiling curtains. Other buildings went the “legal“ route,putting a row of “Live/work“ on the retail frontage. Some units are salons, but most make no pretense at being commercial..
Not quite yet not, not quite everywhere, but looking dangerously close to it! I appreciate all your work!!
