...and pizza to pu-pu platters, the surrounding areas of 23rd and 21st Avenues have a flavor for everyone.
Welcome to a neighborhood for eccentrics and people who love them. Nowhere else in town does one find such an eclectic mix of shops, boutiques, restaurants, fresh fruit and vegetable markets... but mostly, people. Lots of fun, interesting people. NW 23rd Avenue in particular has the feel of a thriving European village on market day. The shopping is one-of-a kind in Portland. Drop by for a visit and it’s easy to see why so many people say this is the place to play and live.
Upper Northwest has it all. Big historic, three story Portland homes, swanky condos and cool loft spaces are within walking distance of art films at Cinema 21... or pizza and beer with friends at the old Mission Theater. Try dinner at Wildwood, Paley’s Place... or one of the many great eating establishments. Enjoy a dessert at Papa Hadyn’s or a latte at one of many neighborhood coffee shops. Everything for the good life is at hand.
Want more? The Pearl District is minutes away by foot or by streetcar. Stay on board a few more minutes and you’re downtown with a connection to the transit mall, MAX and the rest of the whole world via Portland International Airport.
