Garden Park Estates in outer Southeast Portland currently consists of 62 two-bedroom apartments and one three-bedroom house. Most of the buildings’ major systems are now reaching the end of their useful life and the property is in growing need of reinvestment. By better utilizing the generous site, Innovative Housing, Inc. (IHI) will add 54 units, for a total of 117 apartments ranging in size from studios to three bedrooms. The new units will be developed as efficient, well-designed buildings with between nine and eighteen units each, most of them two-story townhouses. The existing units will be substantially rehabilitated into comfortable, energy-efficient apartments. Garden Park’s newly configured site will provide lower rent levels and a wider array of unit types than currently offered, including 25 permanent supportive housing (PSH) units for individuals exiting homelessness and additional family-sized units. A phased construction and relocation plan will minimize the impact on existing residents.

Amenities include a children’s play area, on-site management offices, laundry room, community/resident services space, and an outdoor amphitheater performance space that will be used by IHI's youth arts program and available to members of the surrounding neighborhood. Garden Park Estates is near two bus lines (the #9 and #17) and three major grocery stores, along with other retail and services to meet the needs of residents. The expansive Powell Butte Nature Park is one mile away.
