Quarterly reported last issue: most Portlanders do not like, or want, the proposed Cadillac-Fairview Development which has been proposed for Downtown. Journal readers voted by a 198-60 margin that the proposal was bad for Portland. They voted 222-36 disapproval of using the city’s condemnation power to acquire land for the project. Portlanders opposed the “ sky- bridge” concept of linking together blocks within the project, by a 201-49 margin. Finally, by an overwhelming Vol. 1, No. 3 Fall 1979 222-31 vote, people objected to using city money to subsidize the development.

While the Cadillac- Fairview proposal has been on the back burner as the city council busied itself with selecting a new mayor, the project is expected to come up for a vote in council sometime in the next month. Now is the time to express your opposition to the idea. Remember, the Cad-Fair developers have been hard at work lobbying the council. If you are in opposition to this plan, call up all of the city council members and tell them so. Or, attend the anti-Cadillac meetings on Thursday nights at the First Congregational Church, 1126 SW Park (enter Madison St.) at 7:30 p.m. If you would like further information or wish to join SOLD (Save Our Liveable Downtown), call 284- 4810.
