Grand Ronde’s vision for Willamette Falls

“Anyone who comes here to visit it will feel that connection to the falls,” said Jon George, councilman for the Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde. “To feel the power of it, the spirituality of it, the connection, and to see that things have been restored.”

Though still roughly a decade away from project completion, demolition is well underway. Ryan Webb, engineering and planning manager for the project, is hopeful that construction could begin as soon as next summer.
