The intersection of Ladd and Ladd, the most useful street sign in all of Portland.

Speaking of street signs, is this a street sign for ants faeries?





And is this a tire swing for ants faeries?



Ah, Portland sidewalks... You can fix them or:















One of a few things in this set I've shot before, but shot in more light recently. The tree faces and one of the embroidery things I've shot before:





The Morrison Mini Gallery is so cute, but has such a reflection problem day and night:



I've entered my utility post era:

These are all fantastic! I especially love the cat and the box, which is both adorable and vaguely ominous.

Thank you!

Great pics!

I love the tire swing for ants faeries.

The embroidery pieces are always excellent.

That house with the fairy lights on the trellis looks warm and magical.

Is that a tree octopus on the mural?? I hope so.

I really like "Midnight".

And the intersection of Ladd and Ladd reminds me of when I lived on "31st Street Rd" which was an address that never failed to fuck up deliveries.

Thanks!

Ladd's Addition, which I will forever call The Subtraction, is at a diagonal to the grid street system and I get lost there easily. I sort of hate it, but also getting lost in an area with multiple roundabouts that are mini parks, some rose gardens is a very fairy tale type experience.

I don't know if it's a tree octopus, I hope so.

Diagonal streets, why. (In Denver it's Speer Blvd. WHY DOES IT DO THAT?)

Though it sounds Very Portland that it's full of mini parks and things. Quite fairy tale-esque.

I do hope it's a tree octopus!
