This is a statue in Pettygrove Park in Portland. We had never seen it or the park even though it is only a couple of blocks from where we eat pizza at least one night a week. After we eat, we walk around downtown for a while before heading home. Usually its up through the PSU campus but tonight we headed east and found this.
Neither Diane or I could quite figure out why it's called "Dreamer" but it was placed there in the 60's so that might be a sufficient explanation.
This park was created in one of the first urban renewal districts in Portland and is tucked in between a bunch of high rise apartment buildings. One block square, it is a green, grassy oasis in the concrete of downtown Portland.
