North Portland
North Portland is home to many neighborhoods, including St. John’s, Overlook, and Jantzen Beach. The St. John’s neighborhood is named for the St. John’s Bridge. This gothic style bridge was built by Dr. D.B. Steinman in the early 1930’s, and was, according to Dr. Steinman, “the most beautiful bridge in the world.” The Overlook neighborhood is so named for the bluff overlooking the Willamette River. This area of gracious residences is home to the University of Portland. On the banks of the Columbia River, the Jantzen Beach neighborhood includes Delta Park, Portland International Raceway, and Jantzen Beach SuperCenter.
