The Story of "U" by Ruth Ann Barrett |
When I moved into the Old Town/Chinatown neighborhood of Portland, Oregon, I saw within a three block area many buildings, two within a block, with a "U" as in unsafe. The neighborhood I am told has the highest concentration of such buildings. It is a sad situation for a City that prides itself on its built environment. (April 2014) UPDATE: December 2014 presentation about Unreinforced Masonry Buildings (UMB) here. |
