On Congress Street, Downtown.

From SPACE’s block party this past summer.

A friendly reminder that there are downtown Portland neighborhoods other than the Old Port. (Yay, Arts District!) And also that there is a thriving arts scene in Portland contributing a lot to the city’s vibrancy (ineffable) and economy (tangible).

The Arts District has better restaurants, too. 😉

The Block Party Saturday was great! There could have been more vendors, and a few of the spaces (I won’t put them on the spot and name them) might have chosen to be open to the crowds, but the weather was great, the music was great, and it was a really good time.

I don’t know if this is going to be an annual event. It has my vote, and even my support, if it’s needed!
