Darling-Acme on Foster

Construction Zone, Present and Future Dog Park, Edge of the Pearl District, Centennial Mills

Twelve years ago I was walking in the "old industrial area" and decided there that I wanted to live in this grey, misty city that smelled like brewing beer. I don't mind the Pearl District, but I do miss the brewery and a lot of the old buildings. I hope they don't mess up Centennial Mills.

Just as I snapped this I heard a short conversation. "All these businesses are turning into... what?" "Yeah, it's the rent."

More signs and fences. But really, could you resist that cup?

I don't know whether or not this is a brownfield, but I suspect it is. Update 10-24-08: It's not!
