(public service announcement)
I found out the hard way when I went there this morning to drop some film.

Thanks for the update!

Moving to a new location w/ a temporary suspension in service is certainly better than closing. ;^)

I count on Citizens to develop my 4x5 e6 film, since no one in Washington state currently does it. When I travel south from Seattle on hiking trips, I usually stop at Citizens to drop-off film, then pick-up when I'm on my way home.

Good people.

We’re Moving

Yes, we are moving. After 40 years of business in the Citizens area of SE Portland, we are moving . Our new address will be 3040 NE Sandy.

With the deadline to have our 6th street location vacated by October 31st, the last day to pick up orders is Saturday, October 18th. Monday, October 13th was the last day to bring in film for processing.

Our target re-opening date is December 2014. Stay tuned for updates and information regarding our re-opening.

Didn't they move a few years ago?

Yippee! That's about two miles closer to my house than the old location. Thanks for the heads up.

Good to know. I just got back from LA and was about to send them some sheets.

I've been going to Citizen's for years. We're lucky in Portland to have a dip and dunk for 4x5 negatives and transparencies.

I should have stopped by today; I was only a couple of blocks away.

They're such good guys and I'm so glad they found a new location.

I wish them all the best! I went there in 1982 while visiting a friend in Portland. Very impressive.
Glad to hear they are still in biz!
We need to support the real camera shops/labs.

The latest from their website.
"Due to permit and construction delays our re-opening date has been pushed back to January 2015. Stay tuned for updates and information regarding our re-opening. We look forward to seeing you in our new location."

I have a backlog of negatives that I was hoping to get out to these guys this month. However this has convinced me that a trip to Vancouver to see Alastair Inglis' gas burst system is in order....
