that parking lot to the north is MultCo parking overflow for their blanchard offices.

No comment lol

I would hate to see nextportland end, but I understand if it’s not something you can keep up. Thanks for doing it as long as you did, if anything.

I would love to see this kind of density around the Rose Quarter.

We have so many major projects to get off the ground let alone something like this. Would love to see it tho

One of my big vision ideas would be to repurpose the Coliseum as new main rail station/intermodal hub for Portland much in the vision of a European rail station. Passenger trains would no longer have to cross the Willamette River twice and the downtown rail tunnel could run directly below the station for quick and easy interchange. Part of this plan would be demolishing the Louis-Dreyfus grain silos in order to straighten out the track north of the Steel Bridge.

Agree a rail/subway station in that area makes a lot of sense

Wow that’s huge news. Phil must know he’s going to get the Blazers finally for him to have such a mutual benefit in the area

It would be hard to overstate the significance of this. Once this $400 million is leveraged against other sources of public and private funding, that's a massive amount of investment in the neighborhood.

It might just be a big coincidence. But if I’m buying the blazers I’m going to help bankroll the area with a donation like this.

I wouldn't go that far, this is an amazing investment, but I don't think it has anything to do with any other ventures. When Knight offered to buy the Blazers, he gave a very low ball offer. If he was actually serious, he would have offered a realistic offer.

That was just the feeler we all know the first offer isn’t your final one. I don’t know like I said it might be a coincidence but it does have a huge benefit for him to invest in the area around his potential new toy

Unless he shells out $3-4 billion for the team, it ain't happening.

Knight is worth 50B come on dude lol… and the way these nba teams jump in value is nuts. It’ll be worth triple in 10 years. if he buys the blazers he would be the 2nd richest owner in the nba after Ballmer. 3-4B is nothing to him. If he wants the team he’ll get it

The Blazers are in the beginning process of a renovation of the Moda Center that will get the Arena ready for the Women's Final Four in 2030. They did the roof last year. Will be removing & replacing all the steel seating in the lower bowl this offseason. It's a stage renovation that's similar to what happened at Madison Square Garden in New York City. So 2030 is probably the earliest Jody sells the team as part of the Paul Allen Trust. By then the team will most like be worth north of 5 Billion. These improvements to the Rose Quarter, and the Albina Vision Development bode well for the Albina area going forward.
