IKEA opening In Portland!

Yes, we've had a pick-up place for years. But as of July 25, IKEA is opening an actual store here in the Portland metro area. According to the press release, the building itself is going to be massive. When I say massive, I mean absolutely ginormous! As in 280,000 square feet. 19 acres.

The store will be located right next to the Portland International Airport right off of Airport Way and 205. There will 1200 parking spaces, 75 bike racks and a light-rail station in front of the store. (!) Within the store there will be three complete model homes, a gourmet Swedish restaurant and acres of the Swedish design we've all come to know and love. See you there!
