In the southeast and the northwest, the areas of Portland I frequent, you'd be hard pressed to come across a naked utility pole. Rain or shine, intrepid street teams armed with advertising sheets and a way to attach them roam from pole to pole, attaching the music news for all to read. Live entertainment lives in Portland.
I found this pole on the north side of Division, just east of 22nd, right in front of the TriMet wooden bench. What sets it apart encircles its base--that ring of tenacious grass, juxtaposed perfectly for one particular sign. Click on the photo and tell me if you agree.

Wow! That hadn't even entered my head. Thanks for sharing your insight.
