Caruthers Park, Urban park in South Waterfront, Portland, United States.
Elizabeth Caruthers Park encompasses 2.12 acres of land with a central fountain, plaza, splash pad, and bocce court in Portland's waterfront district.
The park, established in 2009, honors Elizabeth Caruthers, who claimed 640 acres of land under the Donation Land Claim Act of 1850.
The land holds significance for Native American communities who traded along the river before European settlement, with over 50,000 inhabitants in the Portland area.
Located at 3508 S Moody Avenue, the park operates from 5:00 AM to midnight and requires visitors to keep their dogs on leashes.
A Supreme Court case in 1868 involving the Caruthers property established equal rights for women under the Donation Act.
