Neighborhood: Foster/Powell

After shedding its sinister moniker, Felony Flats, Foster-Powell is finally coming into its own. A pleasing amalgam of old-school and upstart, “FoPo” stands as one of the last semi-affordable real estate bastions left in close-in Portland. (read more) Foster Road is its main hub, chockablock with the usual fast-food suspects, but also sexy little dance studio Tango Berretín (6305 SE Foster Road, 771-7470), dirt-cheap local produce at the Portland Fruit Company (8040 SE Foster Road, 777-0072) and smoked meat galore at Russian deli International Meat & Sausage (4431 SE 64th Ave., 771-7450). New businesses like cozy Euro-pub Cava (5339 SE Foster Road, 206-8615) and adorable bakery Sweetness (3524 SE 52nd Ave., 788-2177) have settled comfortably among stalwarts like Smokey’s Tavern (5522 SE Foster Road, 774-6101). Still, with four lanes and 40 mph speed limits, the neighborhood’s main drags are less than ped-friendly. Look out for traffic while walking down Powell Boulevard to visit gems like the Seven Dees Nursery (6025 SE Powell Blvd., 777-1421), with its vast garden, and ABC Seafood (6509 SE Powell Blvd., 771-5802), where you can walk out with a brown paper sack of live crabs. —Leigh Van Der Werff.

Black Heart Procession, Bellini


[OVERCAST INSTITUTION] Faithful to its gothic obsessions, the Black Heart Procession chose to release its first album in three years in the month of October. Six is both a return to the band’s numerical nomenclature (want to guess how many albums it's made?) and a rejuvenation of its beloved artful dirges. Though the San Diego-based Procession has floated in and out of a half-dozen lineups since its 1997 inception, the creative centerpiece of Pall Jenkins and Tobias Nathaniel has kept its output surprisingly solid. After a decade the Procession is still incredibly dark, but it’s never gotten bored with melancholy. SHANE DANAHER. Aladdin Theater 8 pm. $15. All ages.
