Pittock Mansion
The Pittock Mansion was home to Portland pioneers Henry and Georgiana Pittock from 1914 to 1919. During the late 1800s and the early 1900s, their lives and work paralleled the growth of Portland from a small Northwest town site to a thriving city with a quarter million population. With its eclectic architectural design and richly decorated interior, including family artifacts, the Pittock Mansion stands today as a living memorial of this family's contributions to the blossoming of Portland and its people.
<i>Note:</i> Pittock Mansion is partially wheelchair accessible. The wheelchair entrance is located on the lower level and the lower level is accessible to all parties.

Hike to Pittock Mansion
One of my favorite hikes in Portland starts at Lower Macleay Park (NW 28th and Upshur Street) and ends at the Pittock Mansion. The hike starts out in the park then follows a creek, after a series of switchbacks you cross Cornell and end up on part of the Wildwood trail which leads to the parking lot of the Pittock Mansion. The Mansion offers some of the best views of Portland and it is absolutely stunning on a nice day. The hike completely adds to the experience!
