Springwater Cart Park, formerly known as Cartlandia,[1] is a food cart pod in Portland, Oregon, United States.
Description
[edit]
The pod is located near the intersection of 82nd Avenue and the Springwater Corridor in southeast Portland's Brentwood-Darlington neighborhood.[2] There are about 30 food carts at this location and it is one of the largest food cart sites in Oregon.[3] Businesses have included Habibi Shawarma and Gyro, Mucho Sabor, Philly Billy,[4] Nacheaux,[5] and Taste of Mongolia.[6]
History
[edit]Owner Roger Goldingay opened the pod in 2011.[7] In 2016, he joined a coalition to sue the city and Mayor Charlie Hales in an effort to overturn a law permitting homeless people to camp and sleep on sidewalks.[2] The pod was burglarized in 2016[8] and 2020.[9][10] It became known as Springwater Cart Park.[1]
