Old Town
Old Town, the area around and just south of the Burnside Bridge, is where Portland was founded in 1843. These days, missions for the homeless coexist with galleries, brewpubs, boutiques, and, especially, clubs. The Saturday Market (March– Dec Sat 10am–5pm, Sun 11am–4.30pm; 
www.portlandsaturdaymarket.com ) packs the area south of, and under, the Burnside Bridge with arts and crafts stalls, eclectic street musicians, spicy foods, and lively crowds, all right by the MAX tracks.
