Senn’s Dairy Park is named for the family-owned business that operated on the site years ago. PP&R and community leaders worked through obstacles, including possible contamination by leaks from an underground fuel storage tank, to develop this site. The Portland Brownfields Showcase Program, a generous environmental contractor named Pat Brady, schoolchildren, neighbors, and community service volunteers all pitched in to build the park. The master plan calls for an entirely native landscape, a grassy lawn with benches and picnic table, a walking path, a playground, and community garden plots. This project demonstrates a successful partnership; the community and city staff working together to create a unique neighborhood asset.
