"The Goose Hollow Inn has been a neighborhood stalwart for decades — not just because of its Reuben or sense of history, but because of its owner. Bud Clark, who served as Portland’s mayor from 1985 to 1992, was one of the city’s biggest personalities. [...] Clark bought the Spatenhaus tavern in 1962 for $1,600, borrowing money to buy beer for its opening night. In 1967, the same year of Spatenhaus’s premature closure (it was demolished to make way for the Ira Keller Fountain), Clark bought Ann’s Tavern on SW 19th and Jefferson, and reopened it as the Goose Hollow Inn. It was frequented by a prime slice of 1960s and 1970s Portlanders — hippies, politicians, musicians. [...] The survival of the Goose Hollow Inn is a testament to its role in the city’s landscape: a true community hub, a place for healthy debate, for jokes, for good conversation, a place — in Clark’s own words — to develop your verbal ability." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
