7 NE Oregon Street, Portland, Oregon

3868

Back to the present day, then.

There is a building on the corner of NE Oregon St and Interstate Avenue, in the shadow of I-5 and the Convention Center, and it is covered in wonder.

It is merely, in function, a TriMet facility where trucks are parked and mechanical stuff no doubt happens. 

There is much to see on this building and I'll share some closeups in episodes to come. but, for now, the idea of a blue rose with the legend spelt out in thorns PORTLAND OREGON THE CITY OF ROSES is a pretty keen thing to assay, I think.
