Gulch--a wilderness park in the middle of the city and just seconds from
downtown Portland (by helicopter)
The Medical School (OHSU) ridge is on the left and Ravensview Ridge (Governor's Park) is on the right. At the mouth of Marquam Gulch lies Duniway Park with its large lilac garden, two running tracks and, just to the south, the YMCA fitness center. OHSU has a new Emergency facility, one of the best equipped in the West. An easily reached helipad is connected to the Emergency Department below by the fastest elevator in Oregon. One of the longest pedestrian sky bridges in the world connects the VA Hospital with OHSU South Hospital.  |
