It’s a beautiful morning, I think I’ll go outside for awhile….and, just smile!
“It’s a Beautiful Morning”: The Rascals
In my continuing attempt to explore Portland metro area parks, I decided to try the downtown urban core area (and, yes, there are quite a few parks). It doesn’t get much more “spring-like” than the Portland Farmer’s Market in the south Park blocks adjacent to Portland State University.
The market is great for fresh, local produce and a myriad of other “foodie delights” plus some world-class “people watching”.
So, I didn’t stop there. I decided to visit several of the “urban parks” (of course, not including our incredible Forest Park in Northwest Portland or Kelley Park in NoPo or Hoyt Arboretum which I’ve visited prior). My focus today was Portland’s version of “inner-city” parks within the core downtown area. We have many more in the close-in eastside (don’t worry, I’ll get there) and NW and SW Portland (I’ll be there too)!!
A little bit of sunshine brings out the “children in all of us”. It’s not quite hot enough yet for the cascading waterfalls that usually dress Jamison Square in the Pearl District, but just warm enough to start bringing the children, dogs and families to enjoy the sunshine!
And, then there’s the “Contemplative Park” or Tanner Springs Park also in the Pearl District. No dogs allowed as it is a “wetlands wonderland”. Many children also enjoy this park, plus readers, sun worshipers and strollers.
I can’t forget the North Park Blocks as they offer a great entrance to Portland’s Chinatown plus basketball, bocci ball, a children’s playground and more!
There are many lesser know parks such as the peaceful park across from the Portlandia Building with our elegant and powerful statue of Portlandia .
