4307-4309 N Kerby Ave, Portland, OR 97217

Mississippi is the common name that Portlanders use for this neighborhood- but Boise is the official name, spilling north into Humboldt and south a little bit into Elliot. This is one of the hottest neighborhoods in Portland right now- with trendy shops, cafes and eateries, plus an area of Food Carts. There are also lots of really cool old houses- some gorgeous! And it's just a few blocks to the MAX on Interstate! The boundaries are not exact, but I would say from I 5 on the west, Williams to the east, Alberta to the north and Fremont to the south. There are some cool food carts in this neighborhood too. Plus the neighborhood is just a few blocks from the Max Train on Interstate- there is a footbridge that goes over I-5 to Interstate and the stop is right there! This neighborhood is still coming up- Lots of the houses have already been restored, and more are being fixed up all the time. People who know about this area, seem to like the business district and shops as much as they like Hawthorne or Sellwood- it is just not as well known. If you go to my website, you can see a collage showing some of the features of Mississippi- all the cool shops, the Victorian homes, the down to earth-back to nature feeling with the chickens....It is a unique, creative neighborhood-vibrant and full of and life! Lots of unique, quality, hip shops- none of the fast food or big corporate businesses! Bike Riding, street fairs- Coffee shops!
