About

Normandale Park

Normandale Park is a 13.69-acre (5.54 ha) public park in Portland, Oregon's Rose City Park neighborhood, in the United States. The park was acquired in 1940, shortly after the closure of Normandale elementary school on the same site. The park was still under development as of 1947. The park's existence, as well as that of Laurelhurst Park, was cited in an announced plan to reduce the size of a nearby playground. In 2010 one of the city's earliest dog parks dedicated to dogs under 25 pounds (or frail or elderly) was established at Normandale.
