Delta Dome was a proposed indoor sports venue in Portland, Oregon. Plans for the domed stadium were proposed in 1963. It would have had at least 46,000 seats with plexi-glass skylights and a 17,000 vehicle parking lot. Inspiration for the building's architecture came from the Harris County Domed Stadium (now known as the NRG Astrodome) in Houston, Texas, which was under construction at the time.
Delta Dome was to be built in Delta Park, the location of Vanport City, a housing project for workers during World War II that was destroyed in a 1948 flood, after a Columbia River dike failed.
The enclosed stadium was intended to attract a major professional sports franchise and increase the city's odds if they were to bid to host an Olympic Games.
Plans for the Delta Dome were scrapped after voters rejected two bond measures in 1964 to fund the construction.[1][2] Delta Dome had the support of Governor Mark Hatfield and Portland Mayor Terry Schrunk. When the city purchased Multnomah Stadium, now known as Providence Park, the push for a new municipally owned multi-sports facility ended.
