Midway Business Association is out in the community! We had a great time conducting mock interviews at the new CTE building at David Douglas High School - their new building is beautiful! And, who couldn’t resist a delicious cookie made by their culinary students!

The new, state-of-the-art David Douglas High School (DDHS) Career and Technical Education (CTE) Center is a 41,000-square-foot, two-story facility that officially opened to students in late January 2026. Funded by the 2022 bond, the facility features modern, industry-aligned labs and specialized equipment, including mass timber construction.

Midway Business Association is out enjoying live music, food and culture at the Gateway Night Market! It’s a tented outdoor event celebrating local businesses; they are here until 7 pm at the Oregon Clinic South Parking Lot (99th Avenue) Stop by and experience this FREE, family event! Great to see Councilor Dunphy and his staff! Thanks Prosper Portland for organizing this fun event!
