December 15 & 16: Pedestrian-Only Nights at Peacock Lane

December 12th, 2011

The 2011 Peacock Lane holiday light display begins with two pedestrian-only nights on December 15 and 16. The street will be closed to traffic from 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm on both days.

Peacock Lane is located in SE Portland, between SE Stark Street and SE Belmont Street and one block east of SE 39th. Each year, residents decorate their homes, a tradition that began in the 1920s. The best way to experience the event is on foot. Take advantage of these rare car-free days.

If you can’t make it, don’t worry. The displays will be up through the end of the month:

December 15 through 30: 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm
December 24: 6:00 pm to midnight
December 31: 6:00 pm to midnight

For more information, visit the Peacock Lane website.
