Getting to Know: Neighborhoods in Brief Frommer
Pearl District

This neighborhood of galleries, residential and business lofts, cafes, breweries, and shops is bounded by the North Park Blocks, Lovejoy Street, I-405, and Burnside Street. Crowds of people come here on First Thursday (the first Thurs of every month) when the galleries and other businesses are open late. This is currently Portland's bid for a hip urban loft scene and is one of the city's main upscale restaurant neighborhoods.
