The Yamhill District and Morrison/Southwest 3rd Avenue stations are light rail stations on the MAX Blue and Red lines in Portland, Oregon. It is the 3rd stop eastbound on the original Eastside Max, now the 4th stop after the inclusion of the Pioneer Place Mall stop in 1990. It was also the eastern terminus of the transit mall. It originally served the Yellow Line from 2004 and 2009 until its relocation to the Portland Transit Mall.
The stations are built into the sidewalks of Yamhill and Morrison streets.
Famous quotes containing the words avenue, morrison and/or district:
“Has anyone ever told you that you overplay your various roles rather severely, Mr. Kaplan? First you’re the outraged Madison Avenue man who claims he’s been mistaken for someone else. Then you play the fugitive from justice, supposedly trying to clear his name of a crime he knows he didn’t commit. And now you play the peevish lover stung by jealously and betrayal. It seems to me you fellows could stand a little less training from the FBI and a little more from the Actors Studio.”
—Ernest Lehman (b.1920)
“What I think the political correctness debate is really about is the power to be able to define. The definers want the power to name. And the defined are now taking that power away from them.”
—Toni Morrison (b. 1931)
“Most works of art, like most wines, ought to be consumed in the district of their fabrication.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
