Fun place for hardware and hippos. When you think of "Keep Portland Weird," you think of places like this. Free, but bring money so you can buy something. Tiny hippos are around $5.

This place is a gem! Not your usual hardware store. It is a huge, old warehouse filled with old stuff. Looking for the globe for a retro lamp, or an authentic 1900 era doorknob for your bungalow? They'll have it.
