Marquam Hill, also known as “Pill Hill,” is home to Portland’s largest medical institutions, including Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), the Portland VA Medical Center, and the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. It sits atop the West Hills and is accessible via Portland’s iconic Aerial Tram. While primarily institutional, tourists ride the tram for panoramic views of the city and Mount Hood. It’s a unique blend of education, medicine, and urban vantage point.
