Hattie Redmond Apartments is Home Forward’s 60-unit new construction project in the Kenton neighborhood of North Portland. This neighborhood is also part of Albina, the historic center of Portland’s Black/African American community. All units in the building are permanent supportive housing (PSH) targeted to individuals who have experienced homelessness and request culturally specific services for African Americans, with the goal of reconnecting displaced residents to the Albina community.
Named for Harriet "Hattie" Redmond, a Black activist who fought in the early 20th century women's suffrage and civil rights in the Portland area, the project's amenities include a community room, laundry facilities, bike storage, common kitchen and pantry, outdoor plaza, dog run and rooftop terrace. Tenants also benefit from on-site property management and client-centered supportive services provided by Urban League and Home Forward. Hattie Redmond Apartments is located directly on the Yellow MAX line to Downtown Portland and two blocks from frequent service bus options; a full-service grocery store and Kenton town center are also within walking distance.
