Portland Gas & Coke building: Demolished

Just demolished. I have been wanting to see the inside for many years and I will never be able to I never got around to checking it out this summer.

A handful of people have seen the insides of it and now you can see them here even though they're from years ago. Unfortunately, I only have a few exterior views myself

That sucks, I have my fair share of such regrets as well.



If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire... Tunnelrunner33!

There used to be a clock in the round face up there. After reading articles online, I figured out that the clock was removed in 1988 and donated to Oregon State University where I believe it is still in use in the clock tower next to the library.

They finally demo'd that thing?! Damn! I had been looking for a way to get in there for so long... fuck. /sigh

Guess I'll go look at other people's pics. And cry silently with my cats, in regret.



You're not weird if you're not normal.

When I got together at a UE convention in August, I was chit chatting about going there and it wasn't supposed to be just talk. The method I have never used before was tried this summer elsewhere and man was I hoping on trying this approach to this location.



a pic I took THIS SEPTEMBER while scouting

Then this all blew up in my face and my heart sank when I saw this in last week's newspaper.

I always wanted to see this place when I was up there. I never stopped by was going to go and just be a cool dude with security and see if I could get in. Damn this sucks, it was such a pretty building.

Damn. Another building that I liked. I never could get into it. I felt like they sent the SWAT team out every time I even got close to the fence.
