The enterior is fall marble and bronze very detailed. The building had a Post Office on the first floor, you can still see the PO boxes and the teller windows for the post office. The building today houses lots of government offices. When I came here to take some pictures, a security guard soon arrived but seemed happy when I told him I liked the building and recommended some shots, and a visit to the Pioneer Court house. Fun Fact #1 it is now named for Gus J Solomon, the longest serving judge in Oregon's District Court.. Fun Fact #2 Several movies and tv shows have filmed here including an episode of Grimm which has exterior shots.

I am picturing something to the affect of the Hunger games or the Divergent series of books (and movies). The Gus J. Solomon United States Courthouse is a federal courthouse located in downtown Portland, Oregon, United States. Completed in 1933, it previously housed the United States District Court for the District of Oregon until the Mark O. Hatfield United States Courthouse opened in 1997. This courthouse currently is used by commercial tenants and formerly housed a U.S. Postal Service branch. In 1979, the building was added to the National Register of Historic Places as U.S. Courthouse. The women's restroom had an entryway with a chaise lounge to relax upon, and I can imagine ladies powdering their noses here some 60 years ago. The interior and exterior both have the feel of an older world.

I've not had a chance to speak of the outdoor amenities until now. And what might be those outdoor parking lot amenities be? Well they are three new-ish Blink machines! OK, she's gone around the bend this time for sure. No, no stick with me! Blink machines are outdoor chargers for all-electric cars (and for hybrids). You have to apply for the card and it works like a credit card at the gas pump. It's a little more complex than that, but the Blink card and a guardian angel saved Ron and I a miserable afternoon after going up to Multnomah Falls and then running out of charge. Our dear guardian angel charged up a Blink machine for us and saved the day. This is a great place to have the Blink machines because this library is located near the freeway entrances. It's just plain a relief for electric car owners to have them there. I'm trying to do my part to get the word out. Thanks so much Multnomah County Library system for going above and beyond the call of duty!

I even got a phone call 2 days later to let me know my permits were approved. Then, I needed to go to the PP&R office to pick up the permits and access key. Things didn't go completely smooth, because some notes didn't get added to my reservation in the computer system. BUT, they were very nice and very helpful. They got it figured out and I was in/out within about 10/minutes.

Now-a-days, there are several options. The new Hillsboro Downtown Station offers a variety of food options spanning many ethnic cuisines - Mexican, Thai, hot chicken, sushi, Cuban, Chinese, Indian, Chilean, Germany, poke, Greek gyros, Korean, Italian, American - even beer and cider, ice cream and crepes. Serious, this is an incredible line up. Outside of the downtown area, like in Orenco Station, there are several restaurants that are also worth visiting like Chennai Masala for really delicious Indian food or Oasis Lebanese when your craving kabobs. The old school fave, Helvatia Tavern off Cornelius Pass, has been there for years and is always good for groups. Had many a team lunch or dinner there. The Meating Place, a butcher shop and restaurant, is worth the drive to Hillsboro! Not only do they sell quality prime cuts of meat, you can eat there and the food is delicious. Get the Reuben made with their own house smoke pastrami, melted Swiss and slathered with thousand island dressing. Fabulous! And enough for two meals! Burgers are killer! You can't go wrong. The ABV is the most popular beer house serving regional beers on tap and hard cider, for those like me who don't enjoy beer. Typical bar food but elevated versions, like burgers topped with Mama Lil's peppers. The Marshalls where I would shop several times a month after stressful days, is no longer there, a big loss. But The Streets of Tannesbourne and the shops across and in Orenco Station have lots to offer. Especially the Home Goods, a chain, but always worth the stop. Ironically, now that I no longer commute to Hillsboro, I find myself out there a few times a year meeting friends for dinner or for mini shopping sprees.

I just have to say that my experience with the City of Hillsboro Building/Permitting Center was top notch!

He was awesome and with his help, the final inspection was scheduled and inspected in less than 48 hours and he updated me as well. Every employee that I had contact with had great customer service and I want you to know that it has not gone unnoticed. It was a pleasure working with your team!
