Terwilliger Boulevard is a street in Portland, Oregon, U.S. It begins at southwest 6th Avenue and Interstate 405 near Portland State University. It passes through the neighborhoods of Marquam Hill, Southwest Hills, and Burlingame and by Lewis and Clark College before ending at Oregon Route 43 in Lake Oswego. For portions of its route, it is a traditional parkway through Duniway and Marquam Parks. The land surrounding Terwilliger Boulevard is heavily wooded in nature. The road was first planned in 1903 by John Olmsted and Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. for use as a pleasure parkway. The parkway was completed in 1915. It is named for James Terwilliger, who owned the land on which the parkway was built.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Portland Parks and Recreation )〕 It is the namesake of the Terwilliger curves, one of the most dangerous stretches of I-5 in Oregon, and possibly also the ''The Simpsons'' character "Sideshow Bob" Terwilliger.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Simpsons 20th Anniversary Special ) 〕 ==Points of interest== (listed north to south) * Duniway Park * Oregon Health & Science University campus, including * * Portland Aerial Tram * * Shriners Hospital * * Portland VA Medical Center * Terwilliger Parkway * Marquam Nature Park * Capitol Highway * George Himes Park * Barbur Boulevard * Interstate 5 * Taylors Ferry Road * Boones Ferry Road * Tryon Creek State Natural Area
