NORTH MARCOM SITE

PHCC and others opposed the Port of Portland leasing a drone testing facility to Verizon at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Community members mobilized in action at the Verizon subsidiary Skyward headquarters in downtown Portland and at Cathedral Park as well as in the media to make a statement that drone testing along the river would further contribute to harm to the people, wildlife, and river. Now, PHCC, Green Anchors, and community elders are aiming to do a feasibility study to determine what is possible at the site.
