Going to Portland.

fakeamerica

Going to Portland Oregon for a wedding this summer and I think that the city rocks non stop(never been before). Is there anything that I shouldn't miss? Any firms that are worth checking out? Is the city as cool as I think(I mean is it liveable, walkable etc...)?

there have been quite a few posts on this already, check out the archives. As far as firms, Allied, Colab, and Holst are good from what i have seen (no particular order).

Go to the new bar/club Doug Fir right off Burnside on the East Side:

Hike in the Gorge and on Mt. Hood. McMenamin's theaters have cheap movies and beer to drink while you watch.
