Overlook Park offers a nice contrast to the fast pace of urban life. Go for a wander around the grounds or kick off your shoes and feel the grass under your feet.

You'll have no end of sightseeing choices when visiting North Portland. Overlook Park is an ideal place to kick off here, but there are numerous other worthy places to check out. Oregon Zoo, Portland State University, and Portland Japanese Garden are not far from the recreation and green space and will top off your day nicely.

Popular places to visit

There are two monstrous bridges that cut through the center of Portland, dragging the Interstate by-pass with them. They pretty much decimated the neighborhoods they were built over, at least at the time. Many of those neighborhoods are back, some better than ever. And the bridges remain. This one spans the northern half of the city. The other, called the Marquam, spans the south.
