Nike officially abandons efforts to reopen its Northeast Portland Community Store

Nike has abandoned its efforts to reopen its long-shuttered community store in Northeast Portland and now plans to make the store’s closure permanent.

“Nike’s commitment to supporting and uplifting Portland’s North and Northeast community is unwavering,” the company said. “We are reimagining Nike’s retail space, permanently closing our current location at 2650 NE Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, and considering future locations as part of this community’s long term revitalization plan. True to our roots, we will seek the input of local community organizations and leaders to determine the best new location.” KGW8
