99 Ranch Construction Resumes After a long permitting and planning process, construction is beginning again on East Portland's first 99 Ranch Market location at 10546 SE Washington Street. The highly anticipated Asian grocery store's progress slowed after the property owner made exterior…

I’m not a Trailblazers fan… but it really feels good to attend a home game and see them win

Whenever I go to the Moda Center I very much miss the PDX airport street pricing policy

Ugh, there's now a hearing scheduled for a bill with the absolutely horrible idea of making Oregon adopt Standard Time year round olis.oregonlegislature.gov/liz/2025R1/M...

The PDX 2045 airport master plan has its first open house scheduled for 5PM on Wednesday, March 19, at McDaniel High School survey.alchemer.com/s3/7802805/P...

There are few better corridors for high speed rail than Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal-Quebec City

There is definitely risk in this project, but I'm not sure it's not risk worth taking. If Made in Old Town is successful, it will both bring investment to a neighborhood of Portland that badly needs it and strengthen one of industries where Portland is a global leader. www.wweek.com/news/2025/02...

A building permit has been issued for M Carter Commons, a 63 unit affordable housing development adjacent to Overlook Park www.portlandmaps.com/detail/permi...
