What amenities do you wish Eugene had? Something to do

For the sake of breaking up the monotony of this sub’s typical posts, what are some amenities you wish we had here? I don’t care if they are unrealistic for the population. I’ll go first: Top Golf and go karts. I don’t want to drive 1.5-2.5 hrs for those up in Wilsonville and Hillsboro more than once a year, and would go to both a many times a year if they were local! Do not mention Swing Suite; I won’t try it since it seems like expensive Wii golf lol!

I searched the sub for a post similar to this and didn’t find one. If there is, I didn’t want to spend more than 15 seconds scrolling for it😆

Edit: The intent of this post is FUN- unrealistic or not. I totally get the valid qualms with Eugene’s problems but that is discussed daily on this sub. I said break up the monotony. For the most part everyone has been great about this and listed some excellent ideas. Please keep this fun and positive and save your grievances for the other posts in this sub that give you this opportunity daily!

Russian bakery/market. I haven’t had oreshkis in three years and I can feel my life force draining.

Seriously! Why doesn’t Roman Russian Market start a chain? One in Salem, one in Eugene, and we can all be happy.

I’m moving to PDX at the end of autumn- not just for the food, but access to Da Hui and Taqueria Nayar and various ethnic grocery stores doesn’t hurt:)
