This morning, on the way to work, I stopped at a downtown Safeway to get coffee and milk for the office. A construction worker yelled at me that I couldn't park next to Safeway. "Why?" I asked, perplexed. The answer is that all parking places downtown are now for construction crews, construction vehicles or construction materials. Please people! Don't get in their way! If you're trying to run a business in Portland, don't. You're just getting in the construction people's way!
Don't drive through, by or around downtown Portland right now. It is a mess. We have closed our city for the duration.
