A Southeast Neighborhood Vibes Guide to Richmond and Sunnyside

Beschreibung

Your friendly local non-guidebook guide to the cultural microclimates of PDX. Like taking a leisurely stroll with a few friends (and their cute dog), this zine walks you through Portland's streets, offering up morsels of wisdom on a given corner's unique establishments and local lore, bolstered by funny personal anecdotes and illuminating historical factoids. From the case of the missing crusties to the conservative zine decrying Ursula K. Le Guin, from the powerfully different styles of numerous local theaters to the 1950s gym, this is a sweet and info-packed love note to the city everyone wants to keep weird. Take your time getting cozied up with the special vibes only this part of Portland can deliver!
