FILE - In this Tuesday, July 14, 2015, file photo, pedestrians cross the wide swath of 82nd Avenue in East Portland, Ore. The Avenue is traditionally considered the dividing line between Portland and East Portland, where shabby apartment complexes, fading strip malls, wide avenues and fast-food chains are the norm. Community leaders say Portland must do more to stop the displacement of residents caused by gentrification. Low-income and immigrant families say they're being pushed out of East Portland, a historically neglected part of town. Portland's tight rental market, coupled with new public and private investments in East Portland, are making the area more desirable to middle class residents. (AP Photo/Don Ryan, File)
