University

All About University

Featuring a small private college tucked into the heart of Mock Crest, University Park lends a youthful vibe to this quaint, traditional Portland neighborhood. The straight, open streets attract cyclists and are excellent for those who love exploring the area around their home.  


Unlike many other areas in North Portland, there are few grand or showy homes here; the houses are modest, comfortable, and simple in a neat neighborhood close to downtown Portland and nearby Cathedral Park, St. Johns, and Linnton. 


Walking through University Park on a Saturday evening, the sound of a bicycle bell or a singing towhee may ripple the neighborhood's calm; later, children's voices or a neighbor playing the violin. A quiet pocket in an exciting, up-and-coming area of Portland, University Park is a peaceful place to call home.
