Parks, coffee shops, and more make up University Park!

River Urban Scenic Park-Like Airport Oregon

The University Park neighborhood is on the east shore of the Willamette River. It got its name because of its proximity to the former campus of Portland University – now the private institution of the University of Portland.

Two recreational parks make up this community, and residents are comforted by the selection of coffee shops and restaurants along Lombard Street. Across the river is where you’ll find Forest Park, a 5,000+ acre scenic paradise with over thirty miles of trails. Downtown Portland attractions and the international airport are just minutes away from this urban community.
