Taking photos near Steel Bridge
If residents want to document conditions over time, rotate one volunteer during a regular walk. Use the same safe public vantage point on the NW Naito Parkway side. Take a wide photo that shows a fixed landmark or any blocked path, and note the date and exact spot.
Keep your distance and frame the site so people can’t be identified. Skip the photo if you can’t get it safely. Portland’s form accepts up to three optional photos.
