About
Hillside
Hillside, located between Forest Park and the Pearl District, is a hillside and residential Portland neighborhood with winding streets and wooded slopes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around NW Thurman St at NW 23rd Ave, where sidewalk patios, indie boutiques, and corner cafes set a steady street-level hum. Community pillars include the historic Pittock Mansion, the Portland Japanese Garden, and the International Rose Test Garden. Homes range from early-20th-century Craftsman and Tudor details to midcentury lines tucked into the terrain. Views open toward the West Hills, while stairways and switchbacks shape daily routes. Trailheads and garden paths keep the landscape close at hand.
