The Portland Ice Arena, also called the Portland Ice Hippodrome or the Portland Hippodrome,[1] was a 2,000-seat multi-purpose arena located in northwest Portland, Oregon, USA. It was home to the Portland Rosebuds Pacific Coast Hockey Association franchise from 1914 and 1918 and the Portland Buckaroos from 1928 to 1941.

It was built in 1914 and closed in the 1950s due to concerns about fire safety.[2]
