Potential additions to investigate
Passing the initial size-and-type screen is not a feasibility finding. Usable space, existing uses, habitat, public access, utilities, permission, construction costs, and ongoing maintenance funding require site-specific review. Missing acreage or uncertain classification remains unassessed.

Inventory-based screening only. Recorded assets do not establish opening hours, program staffing, permission, or operating funding. Potential additions require review of usable space, habitat, utilities, access, and ongoing maintenance. Unverified properties remain unassessed.

How it's holding up
The City's own inventory of what is here and the condition it last recorded for each item. Dates are the source's; old dates mean no newer public assessment, not that nothing has happened since. PP&R does not publish itemized repair costs, so needs appear without dollar figures.
Condition across all assets
Citywide condition atlasAcross 242 assessed assets at this park, 9% are in poor or very-bad condition (rated 4–5). Pooled from the City's public assessment layers — buildings, bridges, playgrounds, courts, fields, fences, paths and amenities.
This count comes from the City's rated asset layers; the “Public assets” list below is a separate furnishings inventory, so its items and scores are counted separately and the two totals need not match.
Condition is rated 1 (good) to 5 (very bad); no score means not yet assessed and is excluded. Park trees are inventoried separately and not counted here. No repair costs — those aren't published.
Repair ledger
Each row is one record from PP&R's public asset layer. No itemized repair cost is published for these records, so none is shown. Dates are the source's last published assessment; treat older ones as unverified.

John Luby Park on Portland.gov
Portland Parks & Recreation (PP&R) is temporarily pausing the John Luby Disc Golf Project. While John Luby Park is an exciting part of PP&R’s broader initiatives, including the Urban Forestry annual planting process, nature patch development, and ADA trail improvements, we've made the decision to postpone the project in response to staff capacity.
This temporary pause is a strategic move to ensure that each initiative receives the attention and commitment it deserves, contributing to the overall enhancement of John Luby Park for the entire community.
We appreciate your understanding and continued support as we address parks and recreation system needs, community expectations, and realistic workloads for staff.
