About
Irvington
Irvington, located between NE Broadway and NE Fremont Street, is a historic and residential Portland neighborhood with tree-lined boulevards and landmark early-20th-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around NE Broadway & NE 15th Avenue, where sidewalk cafes, indie boutiques, and low-key bars line the streetcar-era storefronts. Architectural identity leans Craftsman, Colonial Revival, and Tudor, with deep porches and mature street trees shaping the streetscape. Irving Park adds open lawns, courts, and a community garden feel. The Irvington Club and the historic Irvington School act as long-running local anchors. Broadway Books and the Hollywood Theatre nearby extend the cultural orbit with readings and repertory screenings.
