Ruth's Chris on the Move; Scientologists Taking its Spot

So it's not exactly news that the Portland location of national chain Ruth's Chris Steakhouse is moving from its strip-club flanked locale into fancier digs downtown (the long-standing rumor was confirmed today that Ruth's will anchor downtown's Pacific Center on the corner of Southwest Taylor and Broadway).

Here's what's hilariously newsworthy: Ruth's old digs on SW Third will apparently be turned into the Portland headquarters for the Church of Scientology (we shit you not), which, as we would like to remind you, will be flanked by strip clubs. Amazing.

Ruth's Chris' new downtown location is scheduled to open next spring.
