Portland Skyline

Portland is a hard place to get a picture of.  During our first visit, we tried but ultimately failed to come up with that "money" shot - this time around, we were a little luckier. The reason for this difficulty?

There’s a freeway along the eastern bank of the Willamette River, which otherwise would be a natural place to snap a shot of the city’s skyline (Portland’s downtown snuggles up to the western bank of the river).  And try snapping a shot through the windshield going over one of the bridges.

Here are a few of our other attempts, from the freeway, from the waterfront, and from the Japanese Gardens...

An Update on Visiting Portland, Oregon
By Steve Unger, Lion & the Rose B&B

South Park in Portland Oregon

My partner Dustin and I moved to Portland in early 2002 after living in San Francisco for over 20 years. We came as “high tech refugees” whose computer jobs evaporated when the bubble burst. We traded a modern condo overlooking San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park for a 10,000 sq. ft., seven guest room Victorian bed and breakfast in Portland. We became innkeepers and now host over 1,700 guests a year.

Over the last six years here’s some of what we have learned about Portland:

  • Portland is probably like San Francisco from 50 or 60 years ago … the kinder, gentler, friendlier, more accessible, less expensive version of what San Francisco has become as it gentrified and expanded into the suburbs.
  • People in Portland are really friendly. If you’re on the light rail and pull out a map two or three people are likely to volunteer help.
  • The gay community in Portland is so integrated it seems to disappear. For example, one of the members of City Council is gay and running for mayor. His being gay is not even mentioned as an issue.
  • While there are homeless people in Portland, compared to the number of homeless on the streets of San Francisco, Portland feels to us like a “gated community”.
  • Portland is reported to be the number one city for attracting 18 – 34 year olds (as a percent of population). Portland is the most affordable west coast city with great urban life in close proximity to nature. While housing in some areas is expensive, there are also less expensive areas. Portland is also attracting lots of retiring baby boomers.
  • The public transit is fantastic. There are two light rail systems. The MAX extends into the suburbs. The Portland Street Car connects parts of central Portland. You can take the light rail from the airport to downtown. There is also an extensive bus system. You can travel for free on light rail and bus in central Portland’s “Fareless Square”.
