Plaza plans are proving problematic* at the Multnomah County Behavioral Health Resource Center, according to the Daily Journal of Commerce.

Building on History wrote about the approval of a new building at 2124 NW Flanders, which will replace the Nathan Simon house.

Italian food hall Cooperativa is now open in the Pearl District’s Tanner Point, reports Portland Monthly.

A proposed development at 2124 NW Flanders St would displace low-income residents, reports Street Roots. Writing after the project’s first hearing, Building on History described why the Historic Landmarks Commission has no power to deny or delay the demolition of the Nathan Simon House currently located on the site.

The Portland Public Schools board approved a $1.2 billion bond for November ballot, reported OPB.
