Portland - Washington, Oregon and the Pacific Northwest - page 471

Eastside has many trendy shopping streets that also host restaurants, cafes and bars.
SE Hawthorne Blvd is the biggest of these, N Mississippi Ave is the most recent and NE
Alberta is the most artsy and funky.
If you're feeling up for the drive, find outlet malls at Woodburn Company Stores (in
Woodburn, about 30 miles south of Portland) or Columbia Gorge Premium Outlets (in
Troutdale, just east of Portland). And for some fun, off-the-beaten-path shops, visit
