Collins View, located between the Willamette River and Tryon Creek State Natural Area, is a residential and campus-adjacent Portland neighborhood with wooded ravines and curving hillside streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lewis & Clark College campus along SW Palatine Hill Road, where brick academic buildings meet trailheads and quiet overlooks. Mid-century ranches and traditional homes sit among tall firs, with frequent glimpses of the river and forest canopy. Tryon Creek’s footbridges and soft-surface paths shape daily routines more than storefront blocks. The Collins View Woods Natural Area adds a pocket of deep green close to home. Nearby, the Sellwood Bridge ties the landscape to riverfront routes and city connections.
