Benson Garage

1918

Another newly discovered ghost sign, this one at NW 9th and Burnside. I've driven by this one hundreds of times; as usual, being on foot helped me spot it. "Benson Garage" "Storage" "Washing" can still be made out. The building is still a parking garage but goes unnamed now.

The Firestone shop may be in the Portland Development Commission's urban renewal sights so the Benson Garage sign may disapper in the coming years.
