    I'm not sure what makes this a "park" but I do love this block. Good fountain for cooling off in the summer and comes with its own Elephants for easy plaza snacks and drinks.

    Great Bratts - they have beer and wine and cocktails (!) and fabulous people watching - a more intimate "PDX Living Room"...a foyer, perhaps? :-)

    They have everything (except grass). Play giant chess or board games, play in the fountain then grab a bite at Elephant's.

    The free WiFi is decent and there are many tables under trees or a glass roof.

    Does anyone else see any irony in the fact that Teachers' fountain is lacking an apostrophe?

    Go to Directory Park on a rainy day. The covered area keeps you dry but lets all the light through.
