Recently painted mural on Alameda St. that is signed ‘Alameda Kinder Mural’. I am thinking this was not painted by a group of 5 year olds.

Columbus Blown Off Course

The true story emerges: Columbus discovers mansion in NE Portland. The indigenous population of the Sabin district confiscated the Santa Maria and placed it on a mansion rooftop on Alameda St. Columbus was later discovered locked in the media room of the mansion, forced to watch Western movies on a 55″ LCD TV.

Tree lined streets in the Sabin area of NE Portland. Soon the leaves will be wind-blown about and perhaps raked into large piles for the street sweeper.

Alameda House

This house was a bit neglected a few years ago. New owners gave it a little curb appeal. One of the larger homes on Alameda St. in NE Portland.

Thomas J. Autzen House

The Thomas J. Autzen house is 10,000 sq. ft and takes up a triangular shaped block all by itself. It is arguably the most prestigious home in Portland and is currently for sale for $2.35M. The current owners have invested $.5M into renovations.

The home is hidden behind a hedge.The day I went by these two fellas were replacing window panes.

Thomas Prince Home

The Thomas Prince Home on Alameda St. This is the third home I have ‘discovered’ on this street. In researching this area I found a post on the official Portland city webpage that lists all 5,000 properties, residential and commercial, that are in the Portland area and considered historic. On this list there are 17 addresses listed from 22nd street to 32nd street. I know have a good document to work with in terms of photographing all the historic homes along Alameda St. Should be fun. I’ll post them as I find them.

Late Fall

Most of the leaves have fallen. Taken one block north of Alameda St. in NE Portland. Without the canopy of leaves the neighborhood looks very different.
