No kidding. I thought the city of Portland was going to follow a fundamentally different path than San Francisco and Seattle. Apparently not. I'm predicting we will have similar unaffordability as those cities as the city council clamps down on infill development and turns their ear to the NIMBY element.
Livability issues will be compounded as our average income is far less than SEA and SFO. Umm... I wonder if this new ordinance bans any new dorm construction in the city? As dorms generally don't include parking, such as the ~950 bed dorm "University Pointe" downtown?
