“Alberta St. Neighborhood Upset Over Graffiti”
POSTED: 12:43 pm PDT September 30, 2007
UPDATED: 2:18 pm PDT September 30, 2007

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Neighbors and business owners along Portland’s Northeast Alberta Street are angry about hate graffiti in their area.

Vandals sprayed graffiti on restaurants, shops and even a community church on Northeast Alberta Street from 22nd to 28th avenues sometime Friday night.

The owner of Francis Restaurant, Christopher Pierce, said this is the second time in a year he’s had to deal with this kind of vandalism. The first instance was against gentrification and this one was anti-Semitic.

“Anytime you write ‘Jews’ on something, it’s going to mean something. It has to mean something,” said Pierce.”
