Pioneer Square, often referred to as Portland’s living room, is a centrally-located urban hub that serves as a welcoming space for all. Surrounded by a variety of shops and eateries, the square provides easy access to Downtown Portland’s attractions. While it may not be the city’s most scenic spot, its practical layout and central location make it a convenient starting point for exploring the area on foot or via public transit.
