In the Middle of the Street

This door is located in the middle of what used to be NE Mason St. in Portland, OR. The city decided to use the median area on 72nd avenue as a kind of park and gathering area, so the intersection of Mason and 72nd was closed off to traffic, except bikes and pedestrian. This yellow on yellow door blends in perfectly with the yellow curb in the middle of the street. Stop by here to have a seat, play some basketball, or draw some chalk art.

Know Before You Go

  • While there is street parking on 72nd, it may be easier to find a spot on Mason or another nearby cross-street.
  • Walk from here to Prescott Ave for Coffee, beer, food carts, and Greek food.
  • Walk from here to Sandy for donuts, coffee, and a nearby grocery store.
