This is a 4.3-mile loop walk that will take us through North Portlands lovely and racially diverse Concord neighborhood, home to Fernhill Park, Ainsworth Linear Arboretum and Concordia University, and on into the adjoining Vernon neighborhood with its classic Alberta Park and 100-year-old homes. The walk starts and ends at the decommissioned Kennedy School built in 1915 and remodeled into a McMenamin Brothers' restaurant in 1997, with its reproductions of 15th century Florentine art. We will have lunch and tour the Kennedy School after eating. Bring water and snacks and wear comfortable walking or hiking shoes.
