## History

[edit]

Montage ala Cart, 2021

The food cart pod opened in February 2019 and was named after the Oregon Hospital for the Insane and its co-founder (and also the district's namesake) James C. Hawthorne.[3][4] Approximately a dozen carts were burglarized in January 2021.[5] Vendors have included:

* Bake on the Run[6]
* Bark City BBQ[7]
* Black Dagger PDX[8]
* Montage ala Cart[9][10]
* Smaaken Waffle Sandwiches
* Tall Boy Fish and Chips[11]
* Your Side Chicks[12] (closed in 2024)[13]

## Reception

[edit]

Pete Cottell of Willamette Week wrote, "Named after a 19th-century hospital for the mentally ill, the pod looks like what might happen if Tim Burton were commissioned to design a Portland-themed section of Disneyland."[14]
