Details of Location

• THE SPACE

• On the lower level of the building, the clubroom is a perfect place for meetings. With retractable glass door partitions and a moveable wall, the clubroom can be one open space or divided into two or three breakout rooms. The clubroom can be accessed from the main entrance off N. Weidler Street or from a separate entrance on N. Vancouver Avenue. The new state-of-the-art restrooms are shared by the upper and lower levels and were designed to be energy-efficient and offer ample facilities for a full house.

• The annex is centrally located in close-in NE Portland. There is ample nearby parking and excellent access to public transportation. By design, the Annex is a green event space.

• The Leftbank Annex is one of two buildings that make up the Leftbank Project, The Leftbank Building sits at the eastern head of the Broadway Bridge, where Broadway intersects with Weidler. The Leftbank Annex is one block east of the Leftbank Building (across N. Vancouver Street). The Annex is adjacent to the Rose Garden and is easily accessible by bike, bus and MAX.

• Food carts: "Cartopia" on SE 12th and Hawthorne is this really amazing universe with great food. It's a bunch of carts started by random 20 something kids and, especially, in the evening it's kind of the center of PDX nightlife culture (at least on the Eastside). Don't miss: Potato Champion (belgian frites with poutine) and Whiffies Fried Pies (dessert and savory!). This is the heart of Portland. Do not miss. Must go late night.
