Portland Opens New Day Center With Limited Services
(Portland, OR) -- The city soft-launched the Northwest Glisan "Oasis Day Center" Wednesday, meant to serve people leaving the Pearl District overnight shelter. Run by Urban Alchemy, the site currently offers picnic tables, portable toilets, and snacks, but lacks many promised amenities like showers, Wi-Fi, and charging stations. City officials say more services will be added before a full launch, though no timeline has been announced.
