Sad news today ... This wonderful old school diner will close at the end of the year. Their building was sold and getting a long term lease is not possible. If you want the best breakfast in Portland, make a stop to 1212 NW Glisan.

john, rest assured that if there's a market for another 20-story apartment building, it will be built. That's the way it works.
This is an older, one-story building in an area that's reaching skyward. The land it sits on is probably worth way more than the rent being paid by this restaurant and the other tenants and more than their little businesses can afford.
Maybe you can save the building, john. All you have to do is offer the building owner more than the worth of the land and then you can tell all the tenants that you've saved their businesses.
