Tonight, the Mayor held a “town hall style” meeting regarding the plans to redevelop the Rose Quarter. The Portland Tribune published a synopsis of the evening.

npGREENWAY was there and we were pleased to hear several people including our own Francie Royce question the mayor and make known publically the fact that the North Portland Greenway needs to be given thought at the beginning of this project. It should not be an afterthought to be shoe-horned in at the 11th hour.

You can view our photos from the evening on our Flickr feed, http://bit.ly/2P2JqO. There were many concerns brought forth tonight. I hope the Mayor and the city staff make the right decision.
