Throwback: West End Foliage, Oct. 2015

Lincoln Park and Fountain

Some photos of the recently refurbished fountain in Portland's Lincoln Park. The fountain was cast in Paris in 1870 and is one of just three that exist in America. The whole park has been spruced up as well and is looking better than I can ever recall.
