A few results from a recent excursion to suitsville. The second pic is more for reference than anything. And to show off the new green roof on the top of the infamous Portland Building.
If you use a photo, please provide a clickable link to this site (not to the jpeg itself). Thank you!

"Ross Island, the bridge's namesake, was at one time home to a famous distillery. McArthur's Oregon Geographic Names, an indispensable work, says the island was once legendary for its "'Blue Ruin' whiskey of pioneer days . . . it was a fluid of high voltage." The distillery is gone, and now it is home to a large number of Blue Heron rookeries."
