Back to EpisodesThe Beautiful Scrappiness of Old Town Chinatown
Description
As we all come down from the high of this weekend’s 503 Day block party (thank you to everyone who attended), we wanted to spend a bit more time in the neighborhood by revisiting our guide to Old Town Chinatown. Portland Mercury culture editor Suzette Smith lived in Old Town for nearly a decade and has plenty of reasons why many people have pegged the district all wrong.
