Portal 9 is a journal of stories and critical writing about urbanism and the city. By focusing on a unique theme, each issue blends creative writing, photography, and personal essays with academic scholarship, perceptive journalism, and cultural critiques. Backed by Solidere, the land development and real estate company, Portal 9 is based in Beirut and published twice yearly in separate English and Arabic editions. It addresses the need for a conscientious debate about architecture, planning, culture, and society in urban contexts across the Middle East and the rest of the world.
