John Luby Park

John Luby Disc Golf Exploration Project

In 2022, Portland Parks & Recreation staff surveyed and identified parks with available space to accommodate disc golf courses. John Luby Park was designated as a park that fit this need. A short, family friendly disc golf course is being proposed that would not affect the existing permanent pathways, playground, nature patch, or impede usage by other park users.

John Luby Park Nature Patch

This small natural garden space was created in 2023 in partnership with Portland's Bureau of Environmental Services. It features a pallet of Douglas Fir forest understory plants such as Snowberry, Sword Fern, Oregon Grape, Salal, Vine Maple, and Ocean Spray. The garden repurposed an underutilized and overshaded area of turf within the park's dense stand of Doug Fir.
