It's been a long time since a swimsuit came out of this building, I don't know how long. Just like Nalley's and Steinfelds and Henry Weinhard's, Jantzen is just a brand name that gets sold about like some corporate trading card.
But when the Jantzen Diving Girl was just a young lady, 411 NE 19th Avenue, corner Sandy Blvd, is where she grew up.
She was and always will be a Portland girl.
The edifice, complete with iconic Jantzen girl over the main door, still stands, waiting for something au courant to lease it and make it their own.
And so it goes.
