PORTLAND WATERFRONT LIVING:
Johns Landing in South Portland, Oregon
Ideal for those seeking a relaxed Portland vibe, Johns Landing is a long-established Portland neighborhood. Located directly on the banks of the Willamette river, it’s ideally situated between affluent Dunthorpe and the eco-urban South Waterfront District, immediately south of Downtown Portland. Like most Portland neighborhoods, architectural styles vary, but a solid majority of homes in Johns Landing are classic craftsman-style. Dotting the banks of the river are prime waterfront condos that range from several million dollars in value to affordable one bedroom flats. With lush landscaping and low-rise designs, these waterfront homes have a distinctly different feel than the soaring high-rises found in the South Waterfront, Downtown and Pearl District.
With views of the river, Mt Hood and Mt Saint Helens, many homeowners express how connected they feel to nature. Johns Landing is very walkable to shops like Zupan’s Market and restaurants like Elephant’s Deli, which is located across the street from the landmark Water Tower building.
And how many neighborhoods can claim their own sailing club? Willamette Sailing Club is adjacent to Willamette Park. The park, which features outdoor concerts and movies, includes 26.5 acres of picnic areas and shelter, boat ramp and dock, off-leash dog area, soccer field and tennis courts. A riverfront path provides pedestrian and bike access to the South Waterfront and Downtown.
Public transportation to Downtown and south to Lake Oswego includes convenient Trimet bus service on two main thoroughfares: Macadam and Corbett Avenues. The neighborhood has easy and quick access to all major freeways: I-5 (North and South), Highway 26 (West to Beaverton and the Oregon Coast) and I-84 (East to Mt Hood and eastern Oregon).
Johns Landing is located in what used to be commonly known as the Corbett-Terwilliger-Liar Hill neighborhood, which still appears on Google Maps to this day. However, you’ll notice the neighborhood has expanded and the name changed to South Portland. Its boundaries are from Downtown Portland to the north, the Willamette River to the east, Portland’s Southwest Hills to the west and Dunthorpe to the south.
This central location provides access to world-class amenities, attractions and schools: Portland’s Aerial Tram and a farmer's market are just minutes away in the South Waterfront District, Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge is just across the Sellwood Bridge.
Top-rated Wilson High School is only a few minutes away in the Hillsdale neighborhood. Lewis & Clark University, renowned for its education and law schools, is located just to the south. And Oregon Health Sciences University main campus overlooks Johns Landing from the Southwest Hills.
There are multiple access points to a pedestrian and bike friendly riverwalk—known as the Willamette River Greenway Trail, which connects you to Portland’s Tom McCall Waterfront Park and Vera Katz Eastbank Esplanade—then onto the Springwater Corridor Trail.
