Portland Wharf Park: "Linking Our Heritage to Our Future", A Preserve America Project

Before the Portland neighborhood was cut in two by the floodwall and I-64, it was a bustling river town. The urban wharf side of the old town is now a 55 acre site that has returned to nature. Portland Museum and Louisville's Metro Parks Department are working together to develop Portland Wharf Park as an educational opportunity and cultural heritage destination. [Learn more]
