Dubious

boundary definition

The definition isn't quite correct and the more generic definition that is in the lede isn't referenced. More specifically, the northeastern portion of the "general area" isn't "also" a part of Old Town. It is a part of Old Town only, not a part of downtown.

Formally, it is "The westernmost boundary of the Portland Downtown Association service area is the I-405 Freeway, which also serves as the southernmost boundary. The Willamette River serves as the boundary to the east. The boundary then follows the river north to the south side of SW Stark. Continuing west on SW Stark, the boundary turns north on SW 2nd Avenue and continues on the west side of SW 2nd Avenue to SW Pine. Continuing west on the south side of SW Pine the boundary turns north on SW 3rd Avenue. Continuing on the west side of SW 3rd Avenue the boundary turns west on W Burnside. The boundary completes the service area by continuing on the south side of W. Burnside until it meets the I405 Freeway. "
