Portland Police Museum

It's a museum with police stuff. There's a motorcycle, pictures of old uniforms, old badges, etc. Learn about some strangler guy who murdered women who ran boarding houses. One room has a wall of anti-drug propaganda. It's in the Hall of Justice where the real, current police station is located. You will need to present photo ID to get into the building and woe to those who wander to an unauthorized floor. Admission is free, once you give them an ID and get a sticker.
