LOCAL INSTITUTIONS
Places that have been here a while
Cinema 21
est. 1925
Opened as the State Theatre a century ago, this single-screen art house on 21st has hosted premieres, festivals, and visiting directors while staying stubbornly, gloriously independent. The marquee alone is worth the walk.
Elephants Delicatessen
est. 1979
NW 22nd
Founded by Elaine and Jake Tanzer in April 1979 and grown into a Portland institution, with the NW 22nd flagship still the mothership of the herd.
Escape From New York Pizza
est. 1983
Portland’s first pizza by the slice, brought west with a full measure of New York attitude and unchanged since: cheese, pepperoni, paper plates, done.
Independent businesses and community institutions that have served the neighborhood for ten years or more, chosen because Nathan actually goes. No one pays to be listed.
