Pearl District
The Pearl District youth and freshness helps it stand out from the rest of the regions of Portland. You will find the best and finest art galleries, businesses and homes. The Pearl District has become a favorite for many Portland residents to move in if they can afford.
The area use to be of warehouses but now has been renovated and modernize into a residents center dream. You will see a long list of designer shops, clubs and other fun attractions. The Pearl District is known for its unique but fun First Thursday events that take place the first Thursday of every month.
You will see many of the regions places stay open longer and have more specials going on to attract visitors. You will see new buildings in the area such as the Elizabeth Lofts at 9th and Everett. One of the newer additions to the Pearl District is the five-block development on the southern edge known as The Brewery Blocks. Basically every unit on the market in late 2005 had an asking price of $400 to $450 per square foot. However, many don’t mind the price and feel happy with the outcome with their new homes.
For a city full of youth and joy, the Pearl District looks to be the center of it and is ready to grow with one of the most economic flourishing cities in the nation.
