“The sports bar at SW 4th and Morrison closed Thursday. Bar officials said the City of Portland gave them no choice but to close after they’ve sought increased security for employees and customers for 4 years. And they said the city is not interested in discussing the problems with them.”
Just to provide a reference for all the people who want to downvote.
This is probably worsened by the lack of foot traffic downtown as well.
Damn. I didn’t know it was that bad. I travel often for work and I’ve noticed a lot of them closed. It isn’t unique to Portland. They always seemed to do good business but it appears they didn’t. Thank you for the link.
