Ad for the Ports o’ Call on Swan Island, 1974. The fantastic KGW Broadcast Center on SW Jefferson. The Edris Morrison Studios (1222-1224 SW Broadway) was a portrait photography studio run by photographer and theater actor Edris Morrison Cox (1903-1997). Mummy’s in downtown Portland closed in 2022. There are some great articles about it floating on the web (check out Thebeerchaser’s review). No, I haven’t lost my mind, just got lost in downtown Los Angeles last month (yes, I know my page is called Lost Oregon). Wasn’t sure where to post, so, why not do a photo dump here? I really loved downtown LA’s energy, contrasts, and, of course, its architecture. Top 9 pics of 2025. The Acrop building is for sale!?" I’ve walked by the Golden Nugget in downtown Milwaukie untold times over the years but had never stepped foot inside until last night, and man, I’ve been missing out. Time capsule. Friendly bartender, late 60s interior vibe, booths. We got a mystery on our hands folks!
