Collectively, Self Enhancement Inc. (SEI) and Community Development Partners (CDP) are referring to the Strong Family Property and the Abbey Lot Townhomes as Alberta Alive Phase III. Phase I and Phase II are currently under construction. Alberta Alive Phase I is a two-building development (NE Grand Ave, NE 8th Ave) with a combined 52 units designed for families and veterans. Phase II is the Dr. Darrell Millner Building - a 63-unit building designed for families, with Metro Bond funding from PHB.
Co-owned and co-developed by SEI and CDP, these three developments initiative aims to celebrate and strengthen Portland’s historically Black N/NE neighborhoods by providing culturally specific affordable housing, supportive services, and a shared sense of community for underserved individuals and families.
On the corner of NE Alberta Street and NE Mallory Avenue, CDP and SEI will construct eight 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath, permanently affordable townhomes with priority to families on the N/NE Preference Policy waitlist. The Abbey Lot Townhomes will maintain permanent affordability, as the development team partners with community stakeholders to develop a replicable homeownership structure that reflects the priorities of the families who will live in these homes.
Prospective homeowners will also gain access to Homeownership Education and Counseling Programs and downpayment assistance resources through SEI and others, which help first-time homebuyers become mortgage-ready.
