Flowers In Goose Hollow

Most major cities have a lack of greenery along large streets, overpasses, and highways. But Portland is known for its mix of nature and city life which keeps the streets feeling vibrant and visually aesthetic. Goose Hollow neighborhood is a great example of this, even though it’s nearer downtown compared to other neighborhoods - it contains beautiful flowers in unlikely places. My walk Monday was the first time I’ve truly explored the neighborhood, and the flowers are what caught my attention the most.
