This upcoming Green Streets Day, Friday, September 26th, is also the 1st Annual Celebration of Portland Green Streets. We started out in mid-September of 2007 and it’s been quite a year – so now it’s time to celebrate! (Mayor Suslovic will be delivering the City’s Green Streets Day proclamation at 5:30!)
Wear green and go green as usual on Green Streets Day – and then come out for some fun from 5-9 pm that evening at Green Streets sponsor Slainte, located at 24 Preble Street (off Monument Square, right across from the former Public Market) in downtown Portland.
