Portland Infill - East of 205

[PdxSuchaStar]

Hello! I'm new here, so be patient
I live in Gateway and I see a real transformation happening with 3 major developments, one proposed development and a new park. Gateway has such potential that I feel the East side/Gateway should have it's own thread.

Mid County Memo
Glisan Commons undergoes design review


Glisan Commons, a collaborative development by three non-profits planned for Northeast Glisan Street at 99th Avenue, had a Design Advisory — an informal discussion prior to a formal application — with the Portland Design Commission last month. The Commission called for some changes, but generally gave both the project and its design high marks.


The Glisan Commons is a new building slated to occupy the corner of Northeast Glisan at 99th Avenue.

The project is a joint venture by Human Solutions, which provides affordable housing and social services primarily in east Portland; Ride Connection, a transit services provider for the elderly and disabled throughout the city; and REACH Community Development, the city’s largest non-profit, low-income housing provider.

Plans call for a five-story building with 67 units of affordable housing managed by Human Solutions, storage for part of Ride Connection’s fleet of passenger vans and mini-buses, and a smaller building with office and kitchen facilities for the transit service. Phase II of the project calls for 60 units of senior housing (managed by REACH) in a multi-story building above the vehicles........................

Kaiser Permanente Northwest has purchased a single-story building and a portion of land for its new Gateway Medical Office. The three-acre parcel, located at Northeast 102nd Ave. and Weidler St. in Portland, is a former Circuit City store.
The new office is set to open in 2014. It will replace the Division Medical Office, whose lease will expire in June of that year.............

Yeah, there's lots going on out there, I just wish it wasn't such an auto-oriented area. I hope with time it gets better.

Eventually that area is suppose to turn into being another urban district in the city. I think we will see a lot of block by block additions, but overall I think the area is gonna need an urban complex and an active masterplan that is being built for the area to really turn into an urban district.
