Southeast Portland
Southeast Portland is hip and sprawling, with hip brewpubs and eateries, antique stores, and indie boutiques.
A planetarium and submarine tours are available at the family-friendly Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, while walks through the quiet Leach Botanical Garden lead to a 1930s manor house.
Mount Tabor Park, which sits atop an extinct volcano, has hiking trails, while Powell Butte Nature Park offers views of Mount Hood.
The Willamette River divides Portland into north and south, as well as east and west.
So the SE Portland Neighborhoods stretches east from the Willamette River to the outskirts of Gresham, and south from Burnside to Milwaukie.
Within this subdivision of SE Portland Communities, there are a variety of varied and unique neighborhoods, ranging from wacky eccentric Hawthorne to gorgeous and stately Eastmoreland.
The history of the SE Portland neighborhoods has been preserved in almost all of them; Portland is passionately protective of and proud of its past.
Oregonians were the first pioneers, strong, proud entrepreneur types seeking a better life across the country in covered wagons.
They constructed it when they arrived, and that history is woven into the fiber of every Portlander.
That is, I suppose, why the SE Portland neighborhoods have been saved, repaired, and safeguarded.
They battle tooth and nail to preserve historic homes, parks and open spaces, and even trees!
Portlanders value environmental stewardship and prefer to live in a city where they can walk, bike, or take public transportation.
Each of the SE Portland neighborhoods has a sense of community that is maintained and nurtured by the small local cafés, restaurants, and shops.
It allows people to get to know one another and to desire to look after their entire area!
