    Yeller - where did you find this? This is a styling study proposal for the '59 Edsel - and it's got a lot of features that didn't get approved - the 'finned' taillights and the side trim primarily. I've never seen this photo before.

    I was up that way just a few weeks ago. Doesn't look much like that now. :)

    This view west on SW Morrison at 18th shows the Multnomah Block as a tidy “Burnett Automotive City”

    selling pre-war Plymouths and De Sotos. Familiar landmarks include Civic Stadium across Morrison and the

    Kingston Hotel just up the street.

    This stretch of SW 2nd Avenue, where it crosses SW Taylor, was dominated by parking lots in 1958.

    World Trade Center Building 1 would rise on this lot on the immediate right.
    The Strowbridge Building can be seen in the right distance on SW Yamhill Street.​
