Question: What is your favorite local landmark?
“The Astoria Column
because of the amaz-
ing overview of the
lay of the land.”
“Downtown. I think
people have a great
respect for the age of
the buildings. I don’t
have a favorite because
they all have different
architecture. They’re all
unique in their own ways.”
THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK
“The Riverwalk. It’s
good for taking
pictures.”
