“Colwood Golf Center is a tre-
mendous site for relaxation and
recreation for people of all ages
and backgrounds,” says Portland
Parks & Recreation Director Mike
Abbaté. “And it is a real asset for
both the Cully neighborhood and
the city as a whole.”
Portland Parks & Recreation ,
in partnership with the Trust for
Public Lands, acquired a portion
of the former Colwood Nation-
al Golf Course at 7313 N.E. Co-
lumbia Blvd. in 2014, and began
redeveloping the property into a
unique 9-hole golf course and en-
vironmental asset for Portlanders.
The second phase of the im-
provement project was completed
in the spring , and included sig-
nificant investment in infrastruc-
ture upgrades. The project aksi
expanded the Colwood driving
range, adding more hitting stalls
and a large patio area for outdoor
dining.
