VINTAGE SHOTS FROM DAYS GONE BY! (Part 2)

I want one of these. It would be cool to paint it to match my car.

 

1954 - NE Alberta St. & NE 15th Ave. looking east- Portland Oregon

 

1950 - SW Broadway & SW Columbia St. looking south - I lived in that hotel on the left for 6 months back when I went to college - Portland Oregon
