The plan seeks to create an inclusive community with equitable public spaces linking to the Willamette River. Addressing housing affordability, homelessness, and transportation challenges, the initiative prioritizes community engagement and sustainable development to heal past injustices and foster a diverse, livable environment.
Goals & Objectives
The plan seeks to create an inclusive community, anchored in equitable public park spaces and focuses on fostering sustained affordability, livability, and diversity, involving the community in shaping a space that meets their needs and ensuring financially feasible strategies for long-term success.
Results & Impact
The result of this people-first, multi-generational engagement approach is a living document, one that reflects decades of tireless effort by Black Portlanders who have refused to give up on the dream of seeing their once-bustling community rebuilt.
