    • Kind of true. TriMet is a division of the State of Oregon and is therefore owned by all Oregon residents. It does not have the authority to own or operate residential buildings.

    • TriMet can agree to sell the land to a non-profit, like Reach CDC, and allow them to develop it. That appears to be what’s happening in this case.

      I’ve seen a number of lots listed for sale that TriMet acquired during construction of the MAX. They own a lot of property along SE 17th from the Orange Line, and still hold some parcels along other routes. You’ll probably see more developments like this show up.
