Description

Just months after Portland reopened the Washington Park reservoir project to the public in August 2026 after a year-long delay, city officials have acknowledged the reservoir’s large upper reflecting pool has been leaking for more than a year.

Over the past year, Portlanders have rolled their eyes at President Donald Trump’s reflecting-pool debacle in Washington, D.C., unaware that Portland had a reflecting-pool drama of its own unfolding largely out of public view.
