Revolution Hall is a state-of-the-art concert venue which sits at the heart of Washington High School. Founded in 1906 as Eastside High, the school was renamed in 1909 and moved to the iconic brick landmark – where it stands today. The existing building was rebuilt in 1924 after a fire destroyed the majority of the original building. The school boasts many notable alumni such as food-enthusiast / chef / author James Beard and the twice-decorated Nobel Laureate, Linus Pauling.
The school was closed in 1981 due to low enrollment. The facility was occasionally used for various purposes but remained predominantly vacant over the years. Since its purchase in 2013, the 113,000+ square foot building has been completely renovated and restored to accommodate offices, The Assembly Lounge and Marthas – our pre and post show bar and cafe, a smaller venue – Show Bar (which serves our sister venue’s famous Bar Bar Burger’) + the historic auditorium. Topping off Revolution Hall (literally) is our Roof Deck Terrace, open weather permitting April thru October, offers the best 360 degree views of Portland bar-none for show goers to enjoy before, during, or after a show.

This is a local favorite for breakfast. It is a bit of a drive, but if you are into hotcakes then you will not be disappointed. The focus is on pancakes, crepes and waffles, but you can order plates with side items of bacon, sausage etc. Fresh orange juice.

This is the home of the original international rose test garden in Portland. Rose garden, bandstand, public swimming pool, playground, tennis courts, basketball court and a large open green space for a picnic or tossing a frisbee around. My favorite local park.

This is the park to visit if you want a great view of the cascades and the surrounding area. On a clear day, you can see several mountain peeks in the Cascade mountain range.

Traveling with children? This is an amazing public school playground just a block away. Great place to take children for some "active family time." Note: This playground is only open to the public during non-school hours and weekends.
