Cathedral Park, Urban park in North Portland, United States.
Cathedral Park extends over 21 acres along the Willamette River, featuring green spaces beneath the Gothic arches of St Johns Bridge in Portland.
The land served as one of the fourteen landing points for the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1806, when William Clark and eight men established a camp.
The Cathedral Park Committee initiated a neighborhood transformation in the 1970s, raising 7.5 million dollars to convert an industrial area into a public space.
Visitors can access multiple facilities including a boat dock, paved walking paths, picnic areas, and outdoor performance stages throughout the year.
A time capsule sealed in June 1980 contains Mount St Helens ash and remains unopened until 2030, preserving local history for future generations.
