Project Overview
Dedicated to the district in 2021, this 3.5-acre property will provide a new neighborhood park for residents within the new Shevlin West development and to its surrounding residents.
Approved by the BPRD board of directors on January 2nd, 2024, the preferred concept design features include open lawn, picnic facilities, shade shelters, play areas, soft surface and paved trails, benches, bike parking, and ADA designated street parking. The park also neighbors district-owned natural area with a soft-surface trail that includes connections from the park site via the Manzanita Trail to adjacent neighborhoods and the Shevlin Park Trails system.
Construction is slated to begin soon, with estimated completion of fall of 2025.
Access to the Manzanita Trail is available through the undeveloped park site from the sidewalk at Mt. Hood Drive. Look for the trail access sign bollard near the ADA parking space on the road. Please respect the surrounding neighborhood construction work.

Formerly known as the Shevlin West Park Site, on June 20th, 2023, the BPRD board of directors approved “Manzanita Ridge” as the park’s name. A park name including the word “Manzanita” was the top recommendation by neighbors during the first round of outreach conducted in spring 2023. Manzanita plants are present on and around the property, especially abundant on the ridge in the natural area adjacent to the park site. In addition, the park site has a connection to the Manzanita Trail.
The park was named in accordance with the district’s naming policy.
