The Portland Archives & Records Center (PARC) is re-opening in its new location on the PSU campus in the brand new Academic and Student Recreation Center. Join us for cake, a little ceremony, and lots of history and fun!

After 28 years in its North Portland location, PARC has exchanged the old City incinerator on N. Columbia Boulevard for a centrally located facility just a few blocks from City Hall. PARC is the official repository for city records and its mission is to preserve these records for future generations while providing access for today's citizens and city employees. From the original city ordinances, to the plans and maps of your favorite park, to photos of the City establishing its infrastructure, these records provide insight into the City's development from 1851 to the present.

Location:
1800 SW 6th Ave, Suite 550
(5th floor of the PSU Academic & Recreation Student Center)
