A Salem blogger visits the Pearl

And he loved it.

Ugh. Unless we could get it moved down to him. Too bad that thought can't plicken.

Yeah, that's right move it down to Salem so we can have the same old blighted, abandonded warehouses back.

Can we get the tax dollars back, too? And the homegrown small businesses that have been driven out? Can we get all the retail that's over there now moved back into downtown, which is dying? 8c)

Oh, what the hell, have your Pearl. I'd never live in a place like that. If I wanted the high-rise condo life, I'd live in some city where I could get a great job and make some real money. But if that's how you want to live in Portland, Oregon, more power to you.

BTW, are there many shrinks' offices in the Pearl?

I'd love the high-rise condo life. But I would have liked it to look like Portland, not East Bay North. The architecture, the cars, the people: none of it looks like Oregon to me.

And I will always spit instead of swallow at giving tax property breaks to the nouveau riche who do live there.

That's a promise (Eric).

If Downtown is dying, then I pray a quick death on St. Johns.

Not much of a "glass is half full" guy, are you?
