B.	Portland Art Museum 1219 SW Park Ave Portland, Oregon	One of the 25 largest museums in the country, the Portland Art Museum showcases impressive touring exhibitions and permanent collections of American, European, Asian, Native American, and contemporary art.

C.	Pittock Mansion 3229 NW Pittock Dr Portland, Oregon	The Pittock Mansion was home to Portland pioneers Henry and Georgiana Pittock from 1914 to 1919. During the late 1800s and the early 1900s, their lives and work paralleled the growth of Portland from a small Northwest town site to a thriving city with a quarter million population. With its eclectic architectural design and richly decorated interior, including family artifacts, the Pittock Mansion stands today as a living memorial of this family's contributions to the blossoming of Portland and its people. <i>Note:</i> Pittock Mansion is partially wheelchair accessible. The wheelchair entrance is located on the lower level and the lower level is accessible to all parties.
D.	Andina 1314 NW Glisan St Portland, Oregon	The interior of Andina is warm and inviting, with wonderful earth-tone colors and wooden floor. The menu features Peruvian dishes. Try the pork tenderloin with butternut squash. I ate dinner there with a a group of 4 and everyone enjoyed his or her meal. We all had dessert as well; the creme brulee selection received rave reviews from the 2 people who ordered it.
