El Autobús
Buses are a great way to get around. Line 74 connects the Wilkes, Glenfair, Rockwood and Centennial neighborhoods, or transfer to the MAX Blue Line or FX 2 Frequent Service Bus Line on Division Street. As part of the 162nd Ave Safety project, new bus station islands were built to improve boarding the bus.
La Bici Flecha
Sharrows (shared arrow) is a symbol that means cars and bikes share the road, but that it's a road bikes are encouraged use. In Portand, our neighborhood greenways are marked with Sharrows to designate them as bike friendly and the speed limit for cars is set to 15 mph. The 4M Neighborhood Greenway was just completed!
La Brújula
Powell Butte is a hub for Portland’s water, as well as an expansive part of meadowland and forest that you can explore. You can find the compass that inspired this card by following the paved Mountain View trail to the top of Powell Butte where you will discover a mountain finder compass that points to local buttes and volcanoes.
La Ciclista
Bicycling is a convenient and healthy way to get around. Whether you're going to the neighborhood park or to work, cycling improves your mental health and lets you skip traffic. Neighborhood greenways help you discover the quiet and safe routes through neighborhoods. With over 100 miles of biking facilities, bicycling is becoming a viable option in East Portland.

Rutherford park covers nearly 8 acres in the Centennial Neighborhood at SE 167th and Market Street, just west of Patrick Lynch Elementary School. It features a new playground area, pathways, and benches. The park is named after a famous Black Portlander who served as co-chair of the Portland branch of the NAACP and also kept extensive historical logs which her family has donated to PSU.
