Portland Public Space...

 
 
 
 

there is plenty of public space in Portland…
a significant problem emerges when one tries to use it in a leisurely , slackly manner…
there are so many panhandlers and homeless, you are never certain of your safety…
america has many ways to defeat Art…
america is one step from full fascism…
neo-liberalism cannot protect its own citizens in its public spaces…
i think it is a conscious policy….

Mikado Hotel…1908...

 
 
 
 

old stairs of the old hotel….
built for Japanese workers to stay, eat and there was a pool in the basement…
it must have been a fascinating place..in the 20s and 30s…
