I created this page due to a photo request from WikiProject: Oregon. The content will be fleshed out within 48 hours. Tedder (talk) 01:40, 28 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
I second Tedder's "hangon." The photo was requested at WikiProject Oregon, in a discussion involving several people. This is a notable Portland landmark, with media coverage. Speedy deletion here would be counterproductive. -Pete (talk) 01:50, 28 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Note, this article is very close to being long enough for a feature on WP:DYK. If we can expand it a little in the next day or so, we should be able to get it mentioned on the front page of Wikipedia. -Pete (talk) 18:23, 29 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
It's about 2000 characters (with spaces) now, so it's technically long enough, though a bit more expansion wouldn't hurt. I'll remove the stub tag. Maybe the LEED certification for a DYK? --Esprqii (talk) 20:10, 29 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
