The Paramount is one of the few historic buildings in Lower Albina to survive the displacement and destruction of the neighborhood. With echoes of the Cotton Club and Portland’s vibrant Black music scene, this space is a monument to resilience. Located near transit, parks, schools, and cultural landmarks, Paramount places you at the heart of what once was, and what’s to come.
