It is not true that the parking situation around the Portland Playhouse is the reason that the Playhouse moved its productions downtown - not true whatsoever. While neighbors are in discussion with the Playhouse about a better parking plan for Playhouse patrons, the Playhouse moved its plays out of the building on NE Prescott because they were violating zoning code concerning use of the building. A quick fact-check email to the NA would have verified this and avoided misinforming the public, but alas.
