This is a 4.3-mile loop walk that will take us through North Portlands lovely and racially diverse Concordia neighborhood, home to Fernhill Park, Ainsworth Linear Arboretum, and Concordia University, and on into the adjoining Vernon neighborhood with its classic Alberta Park and hundred-year-old homes. The walk starts and ends at the decommissioned Kennedy School, which was built in 1915 and remodeled into a McMenamin brothers restaurant and hotel in 1997. We will have lunch and tour the Kennedy School, with its reproductions of 15th century Florentine art, after the walk. Bring water and snacks and wear comfortable walking or hiking shoes.
