Suggestion[edit]

How about including the following park items: Gene Autry-signed flagpole, Japanese American Historical Plaza (this is on an I-5 exit sign), Salmon Street Springs, the steam tug Portland that docks there as the maritime mus., McCall's Cafe, ...? Also, they are planning to re-do it. Jason McHuff 08:45, 22 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Harbor Drive[edit]

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.

The result of this discussion was to not merge ELEKHH^T 02:07, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Harbor Drive was removed and the park took its place. Rather than having two articles that say roughly the same thing, we should merge. –Fredddie ™ 23:46, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. The only thing linking the two is that they occupied the same area. It's like merging Charles I and Oliver Cromwell because they ruled England consecutively. Harbor drive and Tom McCall park are two vastly different entities, each with a distinct function and use, and they should not be conflated. Van Isaac_WS^cont 04:13, 29 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. Looks like there is enough info for separate articles. ----Another Believer _(Talk) 21:45, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"five distinct zones"[edit]

Currently, the article describes "five distinct zones", but perhaps this is just the opinion of the 40-Mile Loop group and not necessarily representative of sourcing? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 23:54, 13 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cherry trees[edit]

Tom McCall Bowl Beach[edit]

I've redirected Tom McCall Bowl Beach to this article for now.

@Gangstaoflove: Just an FYI, since you're working on articles related to Human Access Project.

Very cool - any chance you could help me by stubbing a thread (creating a page) for the River Hugger Swim Team?

Many thanks for your editing help 👍🏼 Gangstaoflove (talk) 15:52, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Gangstaoflove Before we start a new article, I suggest creating a section at Human Access Project. If there's enough content, then we can fork the content out to a separate article. Would you like for me to create the new section for you, which you can then expand? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 15:57, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That would be awesome - many thanks!! 😁👍🏼 Gangstaoflove (talk) 16:00, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
