Introduction What Is the St. Johns/Lombard Plan? The St. Johns/Lombard planning process is designed to explore the features that make St. Johns and Lombard Street great places. The process will also look at issues affecting the area now, and develop strategies to increase the long-term vitality of the area so that they become better places in the future. The process entails a comprehensive study that will examine and analyze land use, transportation, economic conditions, infrastructure and community facilities and services in the study area. Ultimately, strategies will be adopted to implement the community’s vision for the area as well as the Region 2040-based town center and main street concepts. Part of the planning process includes an evaluation of the existing Portland Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan map designations, and a recommendation for amendments to promote compact, efficient, mixed-use, transit-supportive, and pedestrian friendly development. Transportation planning activities will include circulation and congestion management analyses. Strategies for improving transportation access and circulation for all travel modes—pedestrian, bike, transit and auto—will be developed, as will strategies for balancing parking needs. A broad-based public participation process and program of coordinated technical/interested agency involvement is in progress. Final plan products include an implementation strategies report and a proposed St. Johns/Lombard Plan that includes proposed map and text amendments to the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan. The Portland City Council will review the proposals for adoption. Why Plan for St. Johns and Lombard Street Now? St. Johns and Lombard Street are important places in Portland’s urban fabric with great historic value and many community amenities. Both places are valued by the community and have the potential to become even more vibrant places in the coming years. St. Johns and Lombard Street are highlighted in the Region 2040 Growth Concept for their importance within the city and the region, based on location, accessibility, and existing development patterns. The Region 2040 Growth Concept designates Lombard as a ‘main street’ and St. Johns as a ‘town center.’ The designations mean that the areas are appropriate for mixed-use development and greater transportation facility and service options. (See Chapter 2, Policy Parameters, for more information.) Existing Conditions Report 1 Project Boundary The St. Johns/Lombard plan area includes the St. Johns town center (downtown St. Johns, the hillside of Cathedral Park, and the Willamette riverfront), and North Lombard Street from Columbia Park to downtown St. Johns. (See Figure 1 below) The area encompasses parts of the Friends of Cathedral Park, the Community of Portsmouth, St. Johns, and University Park neighborhoods. Together, these four neighborhoods are often referred to as the ‘peninsula.’ Map 1: St. Johns/Lombard Plan Boundary Existing Conditions Report 2 Purpose of this Report The information compiled in this report will guide the development and implementation strategies of the St. Johns/Lombard Plan. This report includes information on existing land use, demographics, transportation system, and community facilities and services in the St. Johns/Lombard plan area. It also includes information on policies that will influence the planning process, economic and market conditions, relevant planning issues, and community organizations serving the area. Planning Process The Bureau of Planning initiated the St. Johns/Lombard Plan in the fall of 2001. The process includes a citizen and technical agency participation program that will be ongoing throughout the entire project and will parallel specific project phases, tasks and products. The project process is represented graphically in Figure 2 on the next page. The first phase of the project focuses on collecting information about existing conditions in the study area. A vision and design phase overlaps the existing conditions work, and brings together members of the community and technical experts to discuss ideas about how the area should develop in the future. This phase of the project will culminate in development of an urban design concept at community workshops that will draw participation from a broad spectrum of interested parties. After this, the proposed urban design concept will be analyzed to determine what types of opportunities and constraints to development the proposal raises. Then, a further round of analysis and input from citizen and technical advisors will take place and strategies will be developed to implement the preferred concepts. These strategies will be included in the proposed St. Johns/Lombard Plan that will be reviewed by the Portland Planning Commission in the summer of 2003. The Planning Commission’s recommended St. Johns/Lombard Plan will be presented to City

Nature has been lavish of her favors to our ever beautiful Casco bay, and its surroundings. I make no recommendation, looking to the expenditure of money, but trust that you will be more fully impressed with the value of the attractions nature has provided, and in conjunction with our fellow citizens, will strive to make these attractions as fruitful to our interests as possible.

It was launched on 17 October 1871. It made its maiden voyage on 11 April 1872 from Liverpool to New York, via Queenstown. In May of the same year it made a record westbound crossing, between Queenstown and Sandy Hook, which had been held by Cunard's Scotia since 1866. In October 1874 the Adriatic collided with Cunard's Parthia. Both ships were leaving New York harbour and steaming parallel when they were drawn together. The damage to both ships, however, was superficial. The following year, in March 1875, it rammed and sank the US schooner Columbus off New York during heavy fog. In December it hit and sank a sailing schooner in St. George's Channel. The ship was later identified as the Harvest Queen, as it was the only ship unaccounted for. The misfortune of the Adriatic continued when, on 19 July 1878, it hit the brigantine G.A.
