Plague Year Diary: West Burnside Looking East

3625
Another angle on Burnside coming from the other direction: West Burnside, heading east, at about 14th Avenue, crossing the overpass over I-405 (the Stadium Freeway).




On the right, in the distance, is the legendary Big Pink, the US Bancorp Tower. This is the first that I realized that that large black monolith is the building we call Yard PDX, and is on the east side of the river. Before that, that was just horizon. Portland, bulking up.

Closer, on the right just beyond the end of the overpass, is McMenamin's famous Crystal Ballroom concert hall. Closed, for the duration.

Ahead: plenty of room for you and your car.
