This corner lot on Northeast Martin Luther King Boulevard at Shaver St. is on track to become a soul food cart court and an education center where youth can learn about Black History.
The site is the former home of The Burger Barn, which hit the headlines in 1981 when two Portland police officers tossed four dead possums into its doorway, sparking outrage and protests in the Black community. And the possum incident is not the site’s only claim to historical importance…
Owner Andre Raiford said he is happy for the site to become a resource for the community.
The building is set to be renovated and renamed the Common Unity Resource Building. Stocked with archive materials and examples of historic preservation the building will expose students to careers in historic preservation, construction and the STEM disciplines, says Teressa Raiford.
Along with Cathy Galbraith, executive director of the Bosco-Milligan Foundation, Teressa has been working to find grants and other funding for the project. She says she plans to crowdfund some of the money needed through a Kickstarter page. Livermore architects have volunteered to work on the design, which will include shrubs and greenery to shield the eating and meeting area from busy Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard.

Downside Resource Centre was a care centre for the elderly and people with long-term health conditions. Sadly it has now been closed by the council and stands empty and derelict so I thought it was about time to get some photos. It is just around the corner from me but it was not that easy ! The whole place is fenced off with one gate that was padlocked but after scouting around the back I found a way in through someone elses property ( sorry folks ).
Before the decking was ripped up and stolen I can remember people having tea served to them through the now boarded up window under the canopy.

1. What renewable natural resources are visible in this artwork?
Sunlight is the most notable renewable resource in this piece. The wind is also renewable.
2. What intermediate-renewable resources are visible in the piece?
The water takes a longer amount of time to renew itself, but it is still renewable. The grass also falls into this category as the buffalo will eat it now, and then again after it grows back.
3. Which fields of study might be represented in the piece?
Ecology is the primary field of study in this piece because the buffalo are interacting with their natural habitat, and ecology focuses on how organisms interact with their physical surroundings. Biology is also present in this piece because there is so much life thriving in the scene depicted.
4. Where on the continuum from ecocentric to anthropocentric would you consider the artist’s viewpoint?
This piece of art would be biocentric because it encompasses many living things from the trees to the buffalo. The presence of animals suggests that this would not just be ecocentric, but biocentric.
5. Interpreting the artwork in terms of the “Human Influence Index,” approximately what is the level of human influence is depicted in the piece?
There is no level of human influence visible in this piece.
6. How would I interpret energy flow in the artwork?
The grass in this painting comprises the first trophic level, capturing the sun's energy to do photosynthesis. The buffalo here are consumers, eating the grass. The light energy from the sun initiates the transfer of chemical energy from the grass to the buffalo and the buffalo releases energy as carbon dioxide through respiration.
7. Approximately which ecosystem/biome is depicted in the artwork?
While it was initially tough to distinguish whether this was a boreal forest and a temperate grassland, I choose temperate grassland because the precipitation is a bit more limited which supports grasses more easily than trees. There are some trees in this painting but one can tell that the grassland is quite vast and expansive. Bison and buffalo are also a characteristic animal in this biome.
8. Describe one of the biogeochemical cyclesf or this landscape.
The hydrologic cycle is present in this painting. Visible in this piece is either a lake or a river, and water from that body will move into the atmosphere by evaporation, the conversion into a gaseous form from the original liquid. This is a natural process of distillation, because it is leaving behind its dissolved substances.
9. Describe the food web that is depicted in the landscape.
The buffalo (and perhaps other critters not visible) consumes the grass. Perhaps there are ticks on the buffalo deriving nourishment from it. Animals like birds or squirrels might eventually eat the ticks.
10. Describe examples of succession and/or human disturbance in the landscape.
There is no visible succession and/or human distillation in this landscape.
