Laurelhurst, located between NE Sandy Blvd and SE Stark St, is a residential and park-centered Portland neighborhood with a garden-suburb street plan and a landmark central park. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Laurelhurst Park’s duck pond and looping paths, where picnics, pickup games, and dog walks set the daily rhythm. Early-20th-century Craftsman and Tudor Revival homes line curving streets, with brick chimneys and deep porches repeating block to block. Movie nights and repertory screenings at Laurelhurst Theater act as a local ritual. Grand Central Bakery on NE 33rd and the Laurelhurst Market steakhouse add a polished, food-focused counterpoint to the quiet blocks.
