[pdx] Anonymous Urban Vista, NW Portland, NW 11th Ave By Powell's

3191.
This photo I enjoy and snapped because of it's photographic non-specificness. This could be anywhere, in Anybigcity, USA.


To be exact, it's a bit of NW 11th Avenue between Burnside and Couch Streets. That building is, of course, Powell's City'O'Books … the 2nd floor and up of that building is the parking garage which is old, respectable, and, sadly, no longer as affordable as it once once. Sic transit gloria mundi, I suppose.

The Coffee Room, where so many cozy Sunday nights are spent, is just visible on the extreme right of the picture, in windows overlooking the rear-end of that red car. It was lensed in March of 2014.

My hometown is special, but it's also got things every other big town has. And I love those too.
