The St. John's Bridge is the northmost of the many bridges in Portland OR, which cross the Willamette River. The bridge connects the St. John's neighborhood in northern Portland with US Highway 30, near Linnton, Oregon.
Beneath the bridge on the eastern side is Cathedral Park whose name is inspired by the gothic arches of the concrete bridge supports.
