pdxplore: Designing Portland
June 24, 2008
An interactive multi-media exhibit exploring Portland’s future
Are we ready for the dramatic changes coming to Portland in this new century? What shape will our city take over the next 50 or 100 years? What is essential about Portland? What do Portlander’s believe in, and what is our DNA? What are the fundamental urban patterns and design principles at work here? What are our hopes and dreams, and how can we build our city to realize them? Five designers - architects, urban designers and a landscape-architect - have been working for over a year to probe these questions. Through lively debate, discussions with invited guests and late-night design charrettes they have created compelling visions of our future. Their ideas will change the way you think about Portland.
