"Tour .committee. In company with
members of tba Initiative One Hundred,
have gone over and viewed a good part
' or tha system of parka and boulevarda
outlined In the report of Olmatead
Brothers o Boston, mad lo the park
, board in 1(0, and republished In tha
: ...board's apnual report of 1104, and after
p thia personal examination are or the
- r opinion that that report has outlined in
' 1 tha main tha true system of parka and
boulevarda for Portland, and that what
ever the park board shall do under
tha proposed-ordinance If adopted by
, tha people should oa aone in general
conformity with thla plan. In particu
lar. your committee would mention
. three features of this system to tha
initiation and progressive working out
of which the board if empowered to do
, so should address Itself. .
- Three pleasing restarts.
' First An encircling boulevard. Such
' a boulevard has been described in de-
tall in the Olmstead report.
In outline, thia might be briefly da-
- scribed as follows: starting at tha
southern end of tha park blocks at tha
head of West Park street, It would lead
by a gently rising grade southeastward
along tha face of tha hill of Marquam
gulch, crossing thla at aoma point up
tha gulch it would continue along and
around tha face of tha opposite' bill at
. a sufficient elevation to give a clear
view over tha city, to tha hllla and
mountains beyond, still rising until a
. point this side of Mverview cemetery
K it ahould reach tha summit of tha "hill
at a point commanding an extended
view of tha galley beyond. 3 .
i From thla point It ahould continue aa
nearly a possible along tha orest of
the hill to a point beyond-the ceme-
' tery, from which it ahould descend. by
an easy grade to the White , Hons
road. Crossing the river- by an ' ele-
vated bridge at aoma point not far
from tha golf links It ahould lead op
to the first erest and thence northward
along this to Sellwood, to a point from
which, by an eligible line, it might run
northeastward to Mount Tabor, whence
again, by a northwesterly line. It should
run down to the Willamette, making
, iie river either along the north bank
of Sullivan's gulch or by the bluff north
of the O. R. c N. car shops, and ahould
continue down tha river along the bluff
past Portsmouth to St, Johns, aa its
northern terminus.
Starting again at the head of Weat
Park street, another extension of the
boulevard ahould lead in a northwest
erly direction, rising gradually to the
summit of tha hllla. leading thence
along tha airy Una, paaslng for tha moat
part rather than crossing the gulches to
a point on the Willamette oppoalta tha
terminus of the boulevard of tha east
side, tha two termini! to ba Joined in
time by an elevated suspension bridge.
Thla. in general. Is tha Una of the
proposed encircling boulevard in ltd full
extent The line of It ahould be., se
cured for - tha greater part of its ex
tent without eost to tha city. The
opening of such a boulevard would
more .than compensate tha owners of
abutting property .for their dedication
of a right Of way. Aa large a part of
thla Una ahould .be secured at onca aa
may ba possible.
Tha part first purchased should ba
that part of tha line where tha exten
sion of tba city and the ' consequent
rlghta and values would render its ac
quisition at a later time impossible, or
at least dlffloult and costly. The se
curing of those parte of tha Una not
liable to such contingencies might well
be deferred. . Tha grading and lmprov
ing. of the Una after it has been se
cured should be begun at once and
ahould ba carrfeT on aa rapidly as tha
Other Interests of the system and tha
funds available may Justify.
Second A system of outlying psrka
This boulevard aa has been described
would pass through or near desirable
tracts of Improved land, some well
wooded, others bare but with fine out
looks, including slopes, ravines . and
hilly tops, soma of which it would ba
well tor tha city to secure at onca as
parka. This would give a system of
parka encircling tha city made easily
accessible by the connecting boulevarda
which might ba made more easily ac
cessible by interior park waya or boul
evards leading from centera of popula
tion directly to the several parts of tha
system. .
Third A system of Internal park
squares and neighborhood parks.
Though mentioned last, your commit
tee believea that this part Of tha proj
ect is by no means tha least in im
portance. In particular. In the matter
of park squares and neighborhood parks.
It is your committee's opinion that da
airable and available squares and tracts
of land ahould early be secured within
eaay reach of all the centera of popula
tion. .,
These ahould be within walking dis
tance of such centers, and ao fitted up
aa to make places of rest and recrea
tion for thousanda of families who are
unable often to spare tha time or tha
means for reaching outlying parka.
Such places of easy and frequent accesa
are already needed, and the need will
be felt with Increased pressure with the
growth and compacting of tha city.
Therefore your .committee ia disposed
to jurge that this part Of the system
should receive the early attention of
the board.. Tha more urgent la thla
alnce such parks will become each year
more dlffloult to obtain, and can only
be Obtained at jargy ost to tba city.
