PDX Neon is dedicated to protecting endangered historic neon signs across the city of Portland, Oregon.

Portland's public collection of vintage neon signs is beautiful, fun, culturally significant, and a huge part of what makes our city special. Historic neon is as important to preserve in place as significant examples of architecture, public art, and other important landmarks. Neon signs are cultural artifacts that serve not only the businesses they adorn, but signify life, connection to the past, and uniqueness of place for a city’s inhabitants and visitors. We seek to raise awareness of this irreplaceable value, and to make legislative change at the municipal level for neon sign protection.
