SunRose and Storefronts
Couple of bylined items in today's inPortland section of The Oregonian....
- An update on the SunRose condo project, on the half-block where the Hungry Tiger once growled. Local developer Randy Rapaport was consulting on it...and now he is not. The project is a go, though, says everyone still on board, including Ann Cohen, who represents the Wong Family. Should be interesting to watch develop, particularly if it doesn't start construction by Thanksgiving, which was the latest planned date. Probably more to this story, but probably not much more that could appear (attributed) in print.
- Also, the Storefronts feature, with new businesses galore (if you call "seven or eight" galore). Features Seven Virtues, at N.E. 60th and Glisan. (And feel free to click on that storefront link...I spent about 15 minutes trying to find the right OregonLive front door that actually listed the inPortland section...maddening.)
- One other note: I'm now serving as the Northeast Portland correspondent for inPortland, which means I'm looking for interesting items about NE Portland, out to about 82nd (which will be covered by someone else). Hot tips welcomed.
