Walking the “razor’s edge” in downtown Portland

I was interviewed for today’s Wall Street Journal regarding Portland, Oregon’s downtown real estate market. I noted that Portland’s downtown is more vibrant than a lot of other cities, but that demographics combined with Portland’s business climate and long-ranging infrastructure projects put the downtown market on “the razor’s edge.”

Coinciding with the WSJ article, the Oregonian announced that a major downtown retailer is leaving for the suburbs. Then, I received an email announcing that the Cascade Policy Institute will move out of downtown.
