So, you are saying ... ( 1 year ago by greenbeanery)

So, you are saying that infinite sprawl of cheap one-story single family homes with unmitigated "mainstream" car driving and smog (Greater L.A. living) is your utopian leaning? PDX seems to lean toward community problem solving. But, surely real estate developers have their influence and deep pockets there, same as anywhere. Does this equal extremist? Please point out your ideal city as far as sustainability policy and political window dressing goes. Cheers.

Then why don't you take trimet or the bus like any good Oregonian? I have been using public transit for over ten years every day to get to work and school. Maybe if more people gave a crap, the city would be a better place. I don't think Portland should brag, or anything, but we do have alot of people who care about the community and the environment. Do you have an eco roof? Or save rainwater? Or compost? Didn't think so.

This is great-course I was born here-I enjoy seeing the new buildings going greener. I haven't had a car here in over 10 years so I'm 100% my bicycle and the pretty great methods of public transport.

Portland fails ... ( 8 months ago by FATWONTON)

Portland fails miserably in highway transportation. All hope was lost when the Liberals highjacked the city council and stopped the construction of highways which would have made Portland much more livable and opened it to economic possibilities which are now unfortunately not there for the city anymore.

We were going in the right direction until 1984. From there it has been all down hill.

Never mind that Portland's sewer system regularly overflows raw sewage into the Willamette River. A role model for the nation.

I lived in Portland for a while then I moved to Michigan which was a big change to the worst for sure. For those who criticize Portland, try to live in the Midwest then you will know that you are lucky being in Portland.
Everything in Portland is better than anywhere less, education, health care, cities, counties, government, and people. I plan in future to settle in Portland and give my children the education they deserve.

I loved Portland. ... ( 3 months ago by schlepinsky)

I loved Portland. It's my home town. However, the transp system has been horribly managed for 20 years. Too much $ was diverted to MAX and other low ROI projects. 90% folks still commute in cars, even in PDX. It's time we stopped denying it. How much fuel has been wasted all these years due to congestion at i5 S. at Delta Park? Or I5 exit north to 84 E? Or in pm gridlock on 26 E. at 185th, and on and on... I don't want sprawling cement, just some balance between traditional and green.
