5. You Can Help with Efforts to Save the Overlook Tree
Portland’s Heritage Tree #259, an Oregon White Oak Tree on Overlook Terrace has been a part of the landscape of the Overlook Bluff since the early-to-mid-1800s. You can help with efforts to protect this tree’s future. You may think that the large open area surrounding this tree, in the 3900 block of N. Overlook Terrace, is a park, a beautiful green space open to the public… But this area is actually privately owned. Learn more about the Friends of Overlook Bluff (FOOB) battle to protect the tree or make a donation to support the legal fund below.
