Mansard in Portland. Golden West Hotel (1906). #mansardroof #architecturephotography #preservation

Newer structure near Municipal Elevator on an existing roof. I like it. #architecture #architecturephotography

The Oak Grove Shoe Emporium building. It's for sale. It's in bad shape. Is it worth saving or repurposing? Could it be the spark that downtown Oak Grove needs? Let's hope something good comes from it. This little neighborhood needs life. (at Oak Grove, Oregon)

Large-scale manufacturing, 1920s-era building being retrofitted for small-scale manufacturing. On the Orange Line. #portlandarchitecture #smallscaleinfrastructure

Downtown Oakridge, Ore., sunset. Interesting town. Half depressed/half mountain bike Mecca. #traveloregon (at Oakridge, Oregon)

I really love wandering around Portland's Central Eastside. It's changed, but still has its industrial legacy (for now at least). (at Central Eastside Warehouse District)

Blue Life on Gladstone. (at Portland, Oregon)
