Park history

The park was purchased by the city in 1909 for $60,000 with funds raised in a 1908 bond measure. Originally owned by local businesswoman Liverpool Liz, it had been the site for a roadhouse and racetrack for quarter-mile horse racing. An autopark and campground were also included in the original parcel. Planned by renowned Oregon architects Ellis Lawrence and Ormond R. Bean, the park was a result of Portland's 1912 'City Beautiful' movement. Completed in 1913, much remains of the original features, including the lantern-style streetlights, the stone pillars, vast brickwork, and the nearly 100-year-old fountain in the center of the rose garden. Disc #4, a bronze sculpture by Jerry Allen, was installed in 1979 along the west side of the park.

All dogs must be leashed in this park.

Condition across all assets

Citywide condition atlas

Across 211 assessed assets at this park, 17%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.

Good · 6Above fair · 60Fair · 110Poor · 30Very bad · 5

Condition is rated 1 (good) to 5 (very bad); blank 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

Assessment dates are copied from the public Parks Amenities layer. Old dates mean this source does not publish a newer assessment for that asset, not that we have confirmed no newer internal inspection exists. PP&R does not publish itemized repair costs, so this ledger shows needs without dollar figures.

Permanent Trash Can

Permanent Trash Can is flagged because the public asset record shows poor condition (public code 4).
