Jantzen Beach Center has a long history in Portland’s most northern neighborhood. Located near the Columbia River Interstate Bridge (just south of Vancouver, Washington), the center has storied roots as the former site of the Jantzen Beach Amusement Park. While the old-time arcades and attractions are gone, the high-quality stores have set up shop.
This expansive outdoor mall is now home to nearly 30 notable brands and big-box stores.
At over 740,000 square feet (68,748 sq m), this expansive outdoor mall is now home to nearly 30 notable brands and big-box stores. Update your wardrobe with new looks from Ross, Lane Bryant, TJ Maxx, DXL Men’s Apparel, and Burlington Coat Factory. Treat yourself at Luxury Nail Bar, or grab your glam to go from Ulta Beauty and Bella’s Beauty Supply. Finish your family shopping with a treat for Fido from PetCo.
Set within sight of the mighty Columbia River, it makes sense that Jantzen Beach Center includes a massive West Marine store. But you don’t have to be a boat owner to appreciate the amazing home goods and bargains at shops like Target, Best Buy, and Home Depot.


When you’ve worked up an appetite scoring great deals, refuel with casual bistro fare at Stanford’s, homestyle eats at Cracker Barrel or quick bites at Jimmy John’s or Panera Bread.
