The Annex is being developed by Catholic Charities of Oregon, and will offer 27 highly affordable apartments for whom rapid recovery from houselessness, or prevention of chronic houselessness, is paramount.

Every week, the Bureau of Development Services publishes lists of Early Assistance applications, Land Use Reviews and Building Permits processed in the previous week. We publish the highlights. This post covers August 9th, 2021 to August 15th, 2021.

Early Assistance has been requested for a project East of 11000 SW Barbur Blvd:

The proposed campus development includes a seven-story affordable housing project and a three-story arts center consisting of office and classroom spaces and preserving the existing church building. The approx. 75,800 sf of housing program is proposed to be 90-units, consisting of a mix of, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units with common space including a lobby, property management & service offices, community room, central shared laundry, and bike storage. The proposed housing project has five floors of wood framed building over two floors of concrete. The ground floor includes a lobby and gallery space at the corner of NE 16th Avenue and NE Weidler Street, under-podium parking along NE 16th Avenue and a central private courtyard that is shared by all three buildings. The project currently assumes to handle all storm water through on-site infiltration. We understand (preliminarily) that the site requires right-of-way improvements based on 2019 EA meeting (#19-153602). Currently there is a dedicated easement along NE 16th Avenue that is intended to be vacated and land reverted to the adjacent site Owner.
