Bridgeport Village LOVES Porsches
- 19 Comment
Just a quick note for those of you who live in the Portland, Oregon area and drive a Porsche (or an Audi actually). Arrive in your Porsche, and you get free valet parking at Bridgeport Village in Tigard.
If you live in the Portland area, then you know about Bridgeport Village. Consequently you also know that parking SUCKS at Bridgeport. We were just driving through there last night trying to get to the Apple store. I finally gave up, left my wife and son in the car in the 10 min zone and ran in for what I needed.
Take the Porsche, though, and your parking problems are solved. Pretty sweet deal sponsored by Sunset Porsche.

That is cool – I had no idea. I always saw the Audis parked across from Crate & Barrel and the signs on the valet stands, but didn't know they would valet for free if you were driving a Porsche or Audi.
Too bad you weren't driving the giveaway Porsche Ryan or you would have been all set.

There is also a display Porsche that you can gaze at across from the PF Changs at Bridgeport. I used to peer at it a lot when I worked there.

Oh, come on the right day and you'll see a bright orange Ferrari parked out by the McCormick and Schmicks. But that info is probably for another website.

I'll do the heavy lifting for ya mitchell.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridgeport_Village
It opened in 2005 so it looks like you just missed it. It is a very California-style open air shopping center. Pretty nice really, but as Ryan said, it can be a nightmare to find parking (unless you just go to the parking garage of course, but everyone insists on driving around for 20mins looking for that "perfect" spot right in front of where they're going).

lol – I hadn't read through that wikipedia page, but apparently my post above was inaccurate. It's not a 'shopping center' as I mistook it for, but rather a 'lifestyle center'. Glad we've cleared that up.
