Lovejoy Fountain Park, Urban park in downtown Portland, United States

Lovejoy Fountain Park is an urban park in downtown Portland featuring concrete terraces where water flows over multiple levels into gathering pools. The space offers different elevations to explore and invites visitors to interact with the water features.

Completed in 1966, the park was designed by landscape architect Lawrence Halprin as the first of a series of fountains and open spaces in the South Auditorium District urban renewal area. It honours Asa Lovejoy, one of the first landowners of the Portland town site. The Portland Penny, used by Lovejoy and Pettygrove to decide the city's name, was later flipped to name Lovejoy and Pettygrove Parks.

The fountain was designed to echo the natural waterfalls and streams of Oregon's Cascade Range, reflecting a landscape many Portland residents know and value. Visitors sense this connection to nature as they watch water cascade down the steps.

The park sits in the South Auditorium District of downtown Portland, linked to Keller Fountain Park and Pettygrove Park by tree-lined pedestrian malls, so the three Halprin spaces can be walked in one outing. The concrete terraces and pools have no railings, and the surfaces are wet where water flows.

The park's large pavilion is clad in copper and was designed by Charles Willard Moore, Lawrence Halprin's collaborator. The Portland Penny, used by Asa Lovejoy and Francis Pettygrove to decide the city's name, was later used to name Lovejoy and Pettygrove Parks. Life magazine ran a three-page pictorial, Mid-City Mountain Stream, soon after the park opened.
