Since the Portland International Airport (PDX) first sprouted 83 years ago next to the Columbia River, its operator, the Port of Portland, has aimed to give travelers a deep sense of the local. Early versions of the main terminal framed nearby Mount Hood with a dynamic entry of western cedars planted in runway-inspired chevron rows. As explosive growth obliterated those features, the Port brought the region indoors with the “Oregon Market”—often described as the first entirely locavore airport shopping experience in the world—offering boutique Oregon wines, eats, and an outpost of the famed Powell’s Books.
