About the Area
Goose Hollow, NW Portland
The Civic sits at the eastern edge of Goose Hollow, the pocket of NW Portland tucked between downtown and the West Hills. It's one of the most connected spots in the city: transit and freeway access in one direction, forested trails in the other.
The neighborhood mixes historic apartment buildings and older homes with newer mid-rises and towers, so the streets stay lively without feeling like the core of downtown. Burnside carries most of the retail, while the side streets are quiet and tree-lined.
Transit & Walkability
The MAX light rail stops next door and downtown Portland, the Pearl District and the 23rd Street District are all within an easy walk, making car-free living simple.
Parks & Green Space
Washington Park, the Hoyt Arboretum and Couch Park are all close by, with miles of trails and green space just west of the building.
Dining & Groceries
Zupan's Market on Burnside handles everyday shopping, and the surrounding blocks are full of long-standing Portland cafes, bars and restaurants.
Events & Landmarks
Providence Park, home to the Timbers and Thorns, is a few blocks away, so match days are part of the neighborhood rhythm.
