PORTLAND WATERFRONT LIVING

WELCOME TO JOHNS LANDING

Johns Landing, a charming and long-established neighborhood in Portland, offers an idyllic blend of nature and urban convenience. Nestled on the banks of the Willamette River, it's superbly positioned between the affluent Dunthorpe area and the innovative South Waterfront District, just south of Downtown Portland. This exclusive neighborhood boasts an array of architectural styles, predominantly featuring classic craftsman homes. Along the river, you'll find premium waterfront condos, ranging from luxurious multimillion-dollar properties to charming one-bedroom flats. Unlike the towering high-rises of the South Waterfront, Downtown, and Pearl District, Johns Landing's residences offer lush landscaping and low-rise designs, providing a serene and unique living experience.

The neighborhood's central location is a gateway to world-class amenities, attractions, and educational institutions. It's minutes away from Portland's Aerial Tram and the vibrant farmer's market in the South Waterfront District, and close to the natural oasis of Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge. For educational excellence, top-rated Wilson High School in the Hillsdale neighborhood and the prestigious Lewis & Clark University, renowned for its education and law programs, are just a short distance away. Oregon Health Sciences University's main campus also overlooks Johns Landing from the picturesque Southwest Hills.

Johns Landing provides exceptional connectivity and accessibility. Public transportation, including convenient Trimet bus service, connects residents to Downtown Portland and Lake Oswego via main thoroughfares like Macadam and Corbett Avenues. The neighborhood also offers easy access to major freeways, including I-5, Highway 26, and I-84, leading to key destinations like Beaverton, the Oregon Coast, and Mt. Hood.

The area is also a haven for outdoor enthusiasts and community events. The Willamette Sailing Club and the sprawling Willamette Park, with its outdoor concerts, movies, and recreational facilities, are local treasures. The neighborhood's riverfront path, part of the Willamette River Greenway Trail, links to Portland's iconic Tom McCall Waterfront Park and Vera Katz Eastbank Esplanade, extending to the Springwater Corridor Trail.

Today, Johns Landing, once known as the Corbett-Terwilliger-Lair Hill neighborhood, has evolved into the South Portland area. Its strategic boundaries stretch from Downtown Portland to Dunthorpe, flanked by the Willamette River and the Southwest Hills. This prime location ensures residents feel deeply connected to nature, with breathtaking views of Mt. Hood and Mt. Saint Helens, while remaining just a stroll away from local favorites like Zupan’s Market and Elephant’s Deli.
