A delightful neighborhood with a delightful mix of old and new. Bordering downtown, this is one of the original neighborhoods of Portland. Goose Hollow's streets are lined with older Portland homes dating from the turn of the century. Some former homes have been converted into law offices, coffee shops and other businesses, making this area a mix of residential and commercial. Goose Hollow is also home to some of Portland's oldest dining establishments.
Goose Hollow is also home to the neighborhood known as Historic King's Hill. Located just South of Burnside and Northwest 23rd Avenue, to King Avenue. Gorgeous historic homes, many registered with the National Historic Register, can be found here. I noted several historic plaques, with homes built from 1890 through the early 1900's. Additional historic areas in or near Goose Hollow include Vista Ridge, Gander Ridge and Lownsdale. If you want to tour the area, I recommend walking as opposed to driving, so you can really appreciate the architectural details and beautiful yards and gardens of these special homes.
