Portland: Green roof soccer field over warehouse

[Sundodger]

Players get a kick out of being green

Liakos Ariston, whose family owns the building on Southeast Third Avenue between Ash and Pine streets, wants to add a field, spectator area and greenspace on 20,000 square feet of roof. The field would accommodate a type of soccer called futsal, which is played in smaller spaces with a smaller ball and fewer players.

Interesting concept. I can't wait to see the finished product.

This was my idea for the Rhode Island Mall, I'm gonna sue!

sundodger -- do you still now if this plan is still slated to begin work this fall?

id really like to see it happen, plus it would be fun to be in a league eventually where you play your games all on different buildings through portland.
