Back in Seattle for a couple of weeks. Spotted this in NE Portland, the self-proclaimed Alberta Arts District..”Rose City Vaudeville”.

Costly Manhattan Parking

This Jeep has Canadian plates that expired in 2006. I would guess there is an interesting story behind this vehicle and how it got here, in the LES. The sign on the left say: “Active Driveway”. With the barbed wire, I think not.

Look Back Thursday: SF Cable Cars 1970

The seemingly timeless cable cars traversing the hills of San Francisco. In the first image I was inclined to drop the VW bug out of the photo, but in reality it is the point of reference in terms of the year. So…….part of it stays.

Guy’s Interior Restoration

On October 2, 2013October 2, 2013 By Fred KingIn Alberta Street, Car, Nikon D7000, Portland, VehicleLeave a comment

Located on Alberta St., NE Portland. I have walked by this shop numerous times in the past 7 years and always just look in from the sidewalk. This day there was an employee working at the very back of the shop who saw me and waved me in. He was insistent, so I relented and went inside. He was working by himself as the owner was in Texas picking up another car to work on for a customer. He told me all about the shop and how he ended up working there three years ago. The shop does not advertise at all yet it gets business from all over the world. People ship their vehicles to the shop in crates, etc. The work they do is just amazing. The green Mercedes was my favorite this day. If you look behind the Mercedes you can see ( barely) a toddler in a stroller. That is our grandson, Adam, who is 2 1/2 yo. He was very patient with me as I conversed with the employee. The blue VW Bug is actually a light table of sorts that was made using a VW Bug that was sliced in half. Pretty amazing!! Most of the cars they work on seem to be older vehicles that need restoration and lots of TLC. The blue hot rod was under a ‘blanket’ that was removed just so I could take a few photos.

At the start of the Cedar River Trail. New Boeing planes with the protective wrap, a heron and a view of the Renton section of the river looking south.

Odds and Ends

Odd and ends for a Saturday. All from NE Portland. Elevated bike? Large map of Portland on the side of a garage– I am not sure of the meaning of any of this stuff. “And so it goes”.

Vespa Spotted

On December 14, 2012 By Fred KingIn Architecture, Brooklyn, buildings, design, New York, Nikon D7000, Thoughts, VehicleLeave a comment

In my walks around the five boroughs of NYC I always stop when I see a Vespa. I shoot them in all colors, ages and degrees of wear/damage. Brownstones and Vespa’s seem to go together. Something about the timelessness of the design, perhaps?
