Fire damages Coin Cottage in Multnomah Village In the early hours of September 9, a two-alarm fire struck the Coin Cottage located at 3675 SW Troy St. in Multnomah Village. Firefighters had to vent the roof of the fortified concrete building and break out windows to battle the flames. The fire may have been caused by an electrical issue. The building had no sprinklers. Schools Committee (Continued from Page 3) The next regular meeting will be on Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. at the Multnomah Art Center, 7688 SW Capitol Highway. The committee shares information, snacks and engagement opportunities. Attendees may agree to share information with their neighborhood associations or attend to participate in specific outreach activities on behalf of Southwest students. Built in 1958 for the Multnomah Post Office, Rose City Trophies took over the building when the post office moved to its current location. Paul Rigby opened his rare coin business and moved into the building in 2011. In February 2015, Rigby opened up the Green Cottage, a medical marijuana dispensary. It shares the same footprint as the coin shop. The Post was invited to see the damages and to speak with Rigby. A chain link fence secured the perimeter. A tent and moving pod were set up in the parking lot so Rigby can sort out the damage and continue to conduct transactions. “We have been very fortunate and blessed,” Rigby said. “Most of my inventory was in fireproof safes. We have a great insurance policy and they have been fantastic to work with.” The Green Cottage suffered smoke and some water damage and is currently closed until further notice. “Steve Arel [the owner of O’Connor’s Restaurant and Bar] has been incredible,” Rigby said. “Steve has offered the Annex to me where I can continue to meet clients during October 2017 Fire damaged the Coin Cottage on Sept. 9.

Whether it’s attending meetings in schools, networking, weeding tennis courts, fundraising or reaching out to influential people, SWNI Schools members collaborate to develop strong relationships. The committee is always interested in adding new organization and business partners to their contact list.
