They removed the #breezeblock and she no longer lights up at night, I imagine the wrecking ball is gonna start swinging on the Palms Hotel soon to make room for the Luxury Apartment Lofts, they are keeping the sign tho. . . #portland #pdx #palmshotel #palmsmotel #portlandphotography #pdxdesign #photography #portlandoregon #urbanphotography #portlandphoto #portlandphotos #oldportland #portlandsigns #motel #pdxmotel #signs #pdxsigns #thepalms #neon #neonsigns #pdxneon #motelsigns #interstateave (at Palms Motel) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqBSjZ8PIxq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So I was in the process of dreaming up the best breezeblock design for our cactus garden to then learn that we may need to relocate our back shed over the corner position of where our funky cactus garden would grow. Things are getting pretty exciting for us in our little corner of the universe, we’ve had our surveys come back for our new studio build as well as our site inspection. We’re super stoked a 3 story apartment building was erected (hehe, I said e-r-e-c-t..) across the road from us while we were living in the USA 🇺🇸 because what that means is that the height of our dwelling will most likely be approved too. Yay for precedents ✊🏼. So who loves a good #breezeblock . I just think they are neato. Breezy, blocky, and you can paint them allllllll the coloured 😊 #breezeblocks #midcenturystyle #vintageliving #cactusgarden #retroliving #midcenturymod #midcenturymodern #pearldavies #pearldaviesphotography (at Newcastle, New South Wales) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByJa8vrJKlV/?igshid=156amrjserkr9
