Gatehouse 5 and Skyscrapers Mt Tabor Park

Spring blossoms frame the view of Gatehouse 5 (1911) juxtaposed with the modern skyscrapers of downtown Portland. To comply with drinking water regulations, the Portland Water Bureau disconnected Mount Tabor's original uncovered reservoirs from the drinking water system in 2015. The open water reservoirs in Mount Tabor Park are usually kept full, but do need to be emptied periodically for maintenance or refreshing the water which is not treated. Portland, Oregon, USA.
