Riverton Trolley Park Description:
In 1896 Riverton Trolley Park welcomed throngs of people from the city who paid five cents to take the trolley from Portland . The park featured an outdoor amphitheater, croquet court, boat rides, a trout pond, a "casino" building by John Calvin Stevens, and scenic pathways. While little remains of its previous glory, the park is still a beautiful place for a walk, and searching the terrain for clues of the past can be a fun challenge. The Friends of Riverton Trolley Park is working towards further renovation of this unique spot.
