About this place
Two indoor courts on a wood floor, the smallest of Portland's four drop-in community centres, at the same $6 adult and $5 senior rate as the others. Like Southwest Community Center it is listed twice on the city's pickleball page: once with its court count and price, once under registered activities as "Indoor wood courts, permanent lines, nets provided". The wood floor and the restrooms are properties of the building and are recorded. The nets describe a programme and are not.
Getting there
8427 N Central St, Portland, OR 97203, in the north sextant, matched by the Census geocoder to Multnomah County. It shares its postcode with Columbia Park and Pier Park and sits between the two of them, which puts twelve free outdoor courts and an indoor room within a short distance of each other. Nothing about parking is published.
What to expect
Two courts, wood floor, permanent lines, drop-in at $6 for adults and $5 for seniors, plus a registered programme booked through ActiveNet that takes no court reservations. Two courts is small enough that the schedule matters more than the count, and the schedule is on the centre's own page rather than the city's pickleball page. Restrooms and drinking water are listed. Nets for drop-in play are not stated.

Thanks. Your review is in the queue: a person reads every one before it appears here, so it will not show up straight away.

Questions about St. Johns Community Center
What else is nearby?
Columbia Park and Pier Park are both on North Lombard Street in the same postcode, with eight and four free outdoor courts respectively. If the weather is dry, they are a much larger option a short distance away.
What does drop-in cost?
$6 for adults and $5 for seniors, the same as at all four Portland community centres. This venue's line is worded slightly differently on the city's page ("$6/Adult and $5 for seniors") but the figures are identical.
How does drop-in differ from the registered programme?
Drop-in is paid at the door, and the court count here refers to it. The registered programme is booked through an ActiveNet account in advance and takes no court reservations. It is the registered programme's entry that describes the wood floor and permanent lines.

What claiming does and does not doShow less
You can claim this listing and correct anything on it. To be clear about what claiming does and does not do: it gives you control of your own facts and a channel to reach us, and it is shown on the page as confirmed by the venue with the date you confirmed it.
It does not mark the listing verified, because a claim tells us who you are rather than checking what is here, and those are different things. It also buys no ranking, no sorting and no placement advantage over an unclaimed venue. The moment claiming bought position this would be an advertising product rather than a directory, and the whole promise would be gone.
Something wrong here?
If you play here and this is out of date, tell us. Corrections come with a source and a date attached, the same as everything else, and a correction that changes a court count gets checked against the city record before it goes live.
