Eastport Plaza is a strip mall located on Southeast 82nd Avenue in Portland, Oregon, in the United States.
Construction began on October 20, 1959,[2] and was carried out by the Anderson–Westfall Construction Company. It was one of the biggest construction projects in the Pacific Northwest at the time and cost $5 million. It opened on October 27, 1960.
Originally an enclosed shopping mall, former anchor stores included J. C. Penney, Mervyn's (which replaced Lipman's), Newberry's, Albertsons, Tower Records and G.I. Joe's. It largely became a dead mall in the 1990s, particularly after Mervyns moved to Clackamas Town Center in 1988, part of a flight of businesses and customers to the newer, larger suburban mall to Eastport's south on 82nd Avenue. The enclosed structure was demolished in 1996, replaced by the current open-air shopping plaza.[3][4][5]
