Henry Merritt Paulson III plans to bring MLS to Portland. If he's successful then PGE Park would require modifications and become a Soccer, and Vikings football, stadium.
Paulson has identified Lents Park as the first choice for an 8000 seat stadium for the Beavers.
This sounds great to me—what do Lents residents think?
I love the idea!!! Big boon for little ol Lents.
Love this plan, glad to be part of it. Will help Lents area a lot, and get the Timbers an MLS worthy park.
Be good for the neighborhood. & I would LOVE to see the TIMBERS as an MLS Franchise. Definitely have the support for it. After all...we ARE Soccer City, USA.
LOVE IT!!!
I'm all for it. Growing up here in Portland, I used to watch my older brothers play baseball in lents and I've always wanted to see something major come to this neighborhood to do it the honor it deserves.
Go Lents!!!
Good for Lents, good for Portland, good for Oregon...we need to make this happen!
Great thing for an area long forgotten, Beavers to Lents!!
What a great chance for the neighborhood to gain some awesome exposure and new development.
I would love to see a natural grass ballpark in PDX!
This could be a very favorable move for the Lents community. Imagine Lents as an actual destination for a change rather than a community where residents are constantly commuting out of the area for entertainment or activities.
