Park Place
Suburban Neighborhood in Oregon City, Oregon
Clackamas County 97045
Just blocks away from the end of the original Oregon Trail, Oregon City’s Park Place neighborhood offers a bit of history, along with some of the prettiest scenery in the greater Portland area. “One of the really unique things about the city,” according to city communications manager Jarrod Lyman, “is its history. It was the first incorporated city west of the Mississippi, and the city’s long history is still very much part of the town today.”
The Park Place neighborhood’s winding, woody streets are lined with renovated pioneer homes and historical craftsmans, alongside a plethora of sleek recent builds with all the modern amenities you could ask for. There’s no shortage of yard space in the neighborhood: native plant gardens and manicured topiary are common, as are stunning views of iconic Mount Hood.
While Park Place can feel like it’s on the edge of town, in reality it’s just a few short blocks away from downtown Oregon City, as well as the shopping centers on the north end of town. When locals have to pick up clothes, groceries or really whatever they might need, they’re less than a mile from the local Safeway, as well as the department stores at Oregon City Shopping Center, where they’ll find everything from Home Depot to Ross Dress for Less.
The End of the Oregon Trail interpretive center sits along the edge of the Park Place neighborhood—older gamers may remember it as the final destination in the Oregon Trail video game—and many local restaurants and attractions are themed around it, like local favorite Pioneer Pizza, or Trail’s End Golf Center and driving range.
When they need a bit of variety, locals can check out the many restaurants, bars and breweries located in downtown Beaverton along the Willamette River. The downtown area can feel like a little slice of Portland, with city staples like McMenamins, as well as the second location of Gabriel Rucker’s French cafe Canard, which won the Oregonian’s “Portland Restaurant of the Year” in 2018. If you’re in an ambulatory mood, you can grab one of Super Torta’s Super Tortas to go, and go for a walk along the McLoughlin Promenade, which offers breathtaking views of the Willamette Falls Dam.
When they just want to get outside, Park Place residents can take the kids to the eponymous Park Place Park, or walk across the local pedestrian bridge to High Rocks Park, where they can take a dip in the Clackamas River. On summer weekends, local boaters often take their canoes and kayaks to one of the many waterfront parks further up the river, and spend a leisurely day paddling home.
Most local children attend Oregon City’s public schools, which are among the strongest in the state. Oregon City High School’s students test about as well as anyone in Oregon, and the school offers a variety of dual enrollment courses at Clackamas Community College.
Park Place is a perfect neighborhood for history buffs, outdoor enthusiasts, and anyone who just wants a comfortable, picturesque place to rest their bones.
