For those who missed it: Late last September, Anzen Hiroshi’s, Portland’s 109-year-old specialty Japanese import store, closed its doors for good. Anzen, which originally opened in 1904 in Old Town amidst a thriving Japanese community, hopped the river in 1968 after the Japanese-American internment shut it down. Anzen was one of the city’s only centrally located Japanese markets.
