North Mississippi

North Mississippi Avenue has become one of Portland's coolest shopping destinations. The historic buildings that line the street now house an eclectic array of independent shops with an alternative style. Everything from handmade furniture to Portland's largest light bulb store (really, all light bulbs!) are found here. Mississippi Records is one of Portland's iconic music stores is found here. For those that enjoy DIY home projects, the ReBuilding Center is a must-see shop. Pizza, music venues, pubs and small unique international restaurants all make for a great night out. This edgy and artistic area embodies the quintessence of Portland's historic urban neighborhoods.
