I'd probably pay the valet for peace of mind.
It ain't going to be fun driving back home in this weather if some random dude breaks a window or tries to steal your catalytic converter.

I'd rather stay in the suburbs of Portland. Nothing downtown worth the headache of getting your car damaged.
Hillsboro - world's second biggest Costco
Astoria - fantastic fish & chips @ bowpicker
1hr drive south - In N Out burger

Frick............ I was just in Portland last week. Second biggest Costco. Damn............ I was going to check out the food trucks, but had to leave. Portland is a bit on the scary side. Even for me.
So where's the biggest Costco? too lazy to look it up, hehe

The zoo isn’t that close to downtown. It’s up where the rose garden is and the nicer part of town I think. Downtown is dangerous

Dangerous is an understatement. I’d switch plates to an Oregon plate, lol. BC Plates is like a new prisoner showing up in a maximum detention facility. Ass raped.
Just kidding. It’s not that bad.

I’ve been to that zoo (like 10 years ago) and it was fine. Because it’s up where that rose garden is at, and next to the big ole
Mansions overlooking downtown, it seemed pretty safe.

Bumping an old thread.
I'm curious if any of you have recently gone into the US through a land crossing lately? If so, what was your experience like? I'm looking to do a weekend trip in to Buffalo, NY some time soon. Thanks in advance!

One of my motivations is to do a Trader Joe's grocery run and pick up some track day parts which are far more cheaper in the US (even after exchange rates) and the local dealers can't figure out how to order what I want.

I'm a bad example though, I look and sound like a cop, I've never had issues crossing 
A buddy of mine who's Indian (from Goa), has his Canadian citizenship, and an H1B visa, went down a few days ago and got pulled inside for further questioning, first time its ever happened to him.
So results may vary there
