    Being bordered by rivers on two sides, there are only two primary thoroughfares to and from the city. The I-205 freeway runs along the eastern edge of the city running south into historic Oregon City. McLoughlin Boulevard also runs north-south, but through the western side of the city.

    Inside the city, the main streets are Portland Avenue, which runs from the high school, through the middle of Old Gladstone, to the river; Webster, which runs along the eastern edge of Old Gladstone from the freeway and the river north into the hills; and Oatfield Road, which winds its way through the hills and drops down into Milwaukie.

    According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 6.5 km sq (2.5 square miles). 6.4 km sq (2.5 mi sq) of it is land and 0.1 km sq (0.1 mi sq) of it (1.98%) is water.

    The city can be divided into four categories. The old section is laid out on a street gridgrid of streets bordered by the Clackamas on the south, McLoughlin Boulevard on the west, Webster on the east, and the foothills to the north. The river section of city is the strip of land between McLoughlin and the Willamette River. On the east side of city is a large park owned by the Seventh-day Adventists. The fourth section of city is the remaining hilly area north of the old section.
