Details: A Single-Family Home located at 2018 Southwest Madison Street, Portland OR sits abandoned. 2018 SW Madison St has 3 bedrooms, 3 baths and approximately 2,502 square feet. The property was built in 1913 and sold last month, 99 years later for $110,000 (avg. morage $403/mo.).
This abandoned house caught my eye while I was traveling through SW Goose Hollow. The stairs from the south-facing side of the house have been removed leaving behind doors that lead to nowhere. Old houses such as these always have a story; I wonder what type of life had previously occupied this property.
“Pacific Crest Community School has been winning hearts and unlocking minds since 1993 when its doors first opened in Portland, Oregon. From the beginning, the school has offered its students and teachers alike the opportunity to be creative, independent and personally engaged in the educational process and community. Everything we do is based on our goal to inspire, respect, empower—and have fun.”*
Sustainable Photography: Colonel Summers Community Garden
Another Community Garden has begun turning the soil and planting the seeds!
It’s the beginning of the growing season and the community has started to prepare their piece of the garden at Colonel Summers Community Park located at SE 17th Ave & Taylor St, Portland, Oregon.
Vines!
I couldn’t help but stop and photograph the vines that have completely covered the corner of 28th & SE Ash Street.
The Side Street Gallery is located on a small side street a couple blocks from East Burnside.

Keeping it clear is a full-time job in the city and Portland is no exception. On any given day you will see a window cleaner high in the sky or down below, quietly wiping the dirt from the days before. Cheers to the Window Cleaner for I may never know what you really see.
