Delta Park — Attraction in Portland

One of my go to places for tons of softball fun but these last 2 years the homeless and criminal kind have flooded this area on all sides. It is a Zombie land like in a freaky movie but amongst us in real time. As I pulled into the park there was a man blocking the entrance with his car with door wide open while this guy was taking a leak in the road at the park entrance? When I realized it was quite obvious what he was doing and I could not go around him and he had no care in the world I grabbed my phone to take a quick picture, just of the incident not of anything personal. I really despise being negative but when there is so many millions of dollars spent on such a beautiful park for baseball and soccer with so many families around and all this filth and destruction amongst us is just plain sad. I would like to add also I stayed and watched a double header when I was done and left the very dark parking lot I saw a couple of different people wandering around looking through cars. I had asked the man in charge about security and they really have nothing other than an occasional police drive by? I absolutely do not enjoy giving anyone a bad review unless it's deserved I'm not so sure this is such a bad review as it is a Testament to part of what is wrong in our world today. I'm going to miss this once amazing...

While the park appears to have been cleaned up (didn't see any homeless camps in the part that I went to) unfortunately they have decided to discriminate about what kind of vehicles can now enter. There's no signs anywhere saying "No Recreational Vehicles". However we were there all of 20 maybe 30 minutes before we were told we can't even be there for day use now. We're not from the area, and I've never even been to Portland other than just driving past it. We were only there to let our dogs stretch their legs but due to the homeless people that make it a bad area, they don't let anybody in with an RV now. We had zero intentions on staying there for more than an hour or so but unfortunately we didn't even get to do that. It's surprising they were more worried about us being there than their own saftey. None of the workers here wore high vis vests and one of them was definitely tweaking 😆 my dad was a drug rehab counselor for years and immediately pointed him out and said "he's lit!" Hahaha, we also noticed his rear window was...

Dangerous park, especially once the sun starts going down. Rats everywhere from the homeless camp, and tweakers racing around in mad-max like vehicles. One car tailed us onto the bike trail, before driving into the brush on the side of the trail and doing burnouts. Not to mention the abandoned (probably stolen) car dumping area with torched cars. At the very least, don't recommend biking through here. There are way better, way safer parks to visit...
