About Keller Fountain Park

Keller Fountain Park is a small downtown Portland park of under one acre. Its centerpiece is a tiered concrete fountain designed by Angela Danadjieva and finished in 1970, which the city describes as an early landmark. The park is named for Ira C. Keller, first chairman of the Portland Development Commission, who backed the downtown renewal plan that led to the fountain. It is one of four sites in the Portland Open Space Sequence, a set of public gathering places. The park has a plaza, a public artwork, paved paths, and a fountain, and dogs must stay leashed.
