This year’s eighth annual event is setting a new record for support from Portland’s culinary community, with more involved eateries than ever before. Restaurants in Portland, Lake Oswego, and Beaverton have pledged 10-25% of their profits to aid the agency’s life-saving domestic violence shelter and prevention programs. Many beloved restaurants are involved, including Mother’s Bistro & Bar, Ruby Jewel, Pip’s Original Doughnuts & Chai, Quaintrelle, The Country Cat, Radar Restaurant, Acadia Bistro, Farm Spirit, Altabira City Tavern, Hale Pele, Nel Centro, Fifty Licks, Pacific Pie, Ya Hala, and more. A full list of restaurants and a map of their locations can be found at www.raphaelhouse.com. For community members, “Restaurants for Raphael House” offers a simple and delicious way to support local businesses and help fund vital services for families seeking safety. Getting involved is as easy as dining at any participating eatery. For participating restaurants, this is an opportunity to show their commitment to Raphael House’s mission of someday ending domestic violence. As Michelle Glass of Nel Centro shared, “fighting domestic violence takes all of us working together to support organizations like Raphael House.” The choice to be involved is a personal one for GiGi’s Café owner Charlene Wesler.

  • M E M O R a N D U M To: Oregon Metro and Trimet From: Nelson\Nygaard Team Date: June 25, 2019 Subject: Central City Transit Capacity - Screening Report
    M E M O R A N D U M To: Oregon Metro and TriMet From: Nelson\Nygaard Team Date: June 25, 2019 Subject: Central City Transit Capacity - Screening Report The Central City Transit Capacity Analysis (CCTCA) project is an effort to define a representative project that addresses light rail capacity and reliability issues in the Central City and that improves regional mobility by eliminating major sources of rail system delay. A representative pro ject is intended to give project sponsors and partners enough information to scope and estimate costs for future operational, engineering, and environmental studies. The representative pro ject will also provide conceptual, preliminary information for stakeholders and the general public. The Portland Central City is the economic and cultural center of the region, with the densest population of people and jobs in Oregon. It is home to numerous regional destinations, including the Oregon Convention Center, Rose Quarter, Union Station, the Pearl District and Old Town/Chinatown, Do wntown, Portland State University, and Providence Park. Traffic congestion, surface transit limitations, limited Willamette River crossings, and Steel Bridge rail capacity and reliability issues all impact the movement of people to and through downtown Portland and between Regional and Town Centers. Projected population and employment growth in the Central City and throughout the region will exacerbate the problem in the future. Improvements to the light rail system are among the most critical, sustainable, and cost-effective means to ensure access to Central City and provide the regional mobility needed to support job and population growth. The project, including this Screening Report, are guided by a Technical Group composed of representatives from local partner agencies.

  • I-5 Rose Quarter Improvement Project Environmental Assessment
    I-5 Rose Quarter Improvement Project Executive Summary What is the purpose of this document? This document discloses results of the environmental study for the Interstate 5 (I-5) Rose Quarter Improvement Project (Project). It is formally called an Environmental Assessment (EA). The EA evaluates the benefits and impacts within the Project Area of two alternatives: one in which the Project would move forward as planned (Build Alternative), and one in which the Project would not be built (No-Build Alternative). The “Project Area” represents the estimated area within which improvements associated with the Build Alternative are proposed, including where permanent modifications to adjacent parcels or construction activities may occur. Impacts are described as short-term or long-term. Short term impacts are primarily related to construction. Long term benefits or impacts are considered out to year 2045 and compare outcomes of the Project No-Build and Build Alternatives. Information contained in this document allows the public, businesses, interest groups, and agencies at all levels of government an opportunity to better understand the Project’s benefits and impacts. This information also supports transportation officials in making informed decisions about the Project that balance engineering and transportation needs with social, economic, and natural environmental factors, such as noise, air quality, and traffic patterns. This document will be formally submitted to the Federal Highway Administration, which will review it along with public comment prior to developing a decision on the Project. What is the purpose of the Project? The purpose of the Project is to improve the safety and operations on I-5 between Interstate 405 (I-405) and Interstate 84 (I-84), at the Broadway/Weidler interchange, and on adjacent surface streets in the vicinity of the Broadway/Weidler interchange.

  • Portland, Oregon's New Convention Center Hotel Is a Game Changer For
    Portland, Oregon’s New Convention Center Hotel is a Game Changer for the City. Already a top destination for both business and pleasure, Portland, Oregon, is unveiling its first convention center hotel, making the city an irresistible destination for meeting planners. The Hyatt Regency Portland at Oregon Convention Center opened Dec. 19, 2019. The new 600-room property boasts ample meeting space, eclectic distinguished barbecue restaurant and an inviting lounge, all of which are steps away from the convention center and some of the city’s top attractions. Connectivity and Convenience For about two decades, the closest hotel to the Oregon Convention Center was six or seven blocks away, often creating logistical challenges and headaches for attendees. The Hyatt Regency is ushering in a new era for this city and is designed to meet all the needs of today’s meeting planners, with an emphasis on connectivity and convenience. The new hotel will add to the city’s booming hotel room inventory, which is expected to grow by nearly 50% between 2016 and 2021, helping make Portland a more attractive location for large conventions and events. The Hyatt Regency has 20 event venues that span nearly 40,000 square feet, including the 11,882-sq.-ft. Regency Ballroom, which can accommodate up to 1,200 people. All the meeting spaces are located within steps of one another and feature dramatic natural lighting. The hotel will also have versatile pre-function spaces, such as the Regency Foyer, where floor-to-ceiling windows provide sweeping views of the Willamette River and the city’s iconic skyline.

Some folks have wondered why we dropped “Portland” from our W title last year, but many have also recognized our year-round commitment and expansion for presenting jazz all across the Rose City under our organization name PDX Jazz (and no one will dispute that PDX is the best airport in America—even with the new carpeting). Our tireless pursuit in offering our Citizens of Jazzlandia the finest examples of emerging, established and legacy artists continued unabated this past Fall with eleven shows: Raul Midón, Kamasi Washington, Camila Meza, Bill Frisell, McCoy Tyner, Steve Lehman, and Dave Douglas, among others. We have many great shows planned for the coming season T. S. MONK including Dave Holland, Donny McCaslin, Gerald Clayton, Billy Childs, Anat Cohen, Eliane Elias, Manuel Valera, Marquis Hill and Blacktet, Ambrose Akinmusire, and major surprises to be announced soon. The venues with whom we partner are integral in making sure we can keep bringing this high level of artistry for Portlanders to admire and discover.
