The Barbur Apartments are breaking ground! Developed by Innovative Housing, Inc., this project brings 149 new affordable homes to Hillsdale. 103 units will have 2-4 bedrooms for larger families, 30 of which will includes Project Based Vouchers for deep affordability.
The project will include a half basketball court, central courtyard, communal outdoor decks on two floors, and two community rooms for afterschool programs and more. Barbur Apartments is located near groceries, parks, schools, and the planned southwest MAX extension. Resident services will be provided by IRCO Immigrant and Refugee Community Organization, Somali American Council of Oregon ( SACOO), Black Parent Initiative, and ISOS. LRS Architects and Access Architecture designed the project, and Todd Construction Inc. is General Contractor.
PHB used federal CDBG funds to buy the site, as well as Portland Clean Energy Community Benefits Fund (PCEF) dollars to help the project meet energy efficiency goals, and funds from the voter-approved Metro Housing Bond, which is bringing 2,150 affordable homes to Portland, with more to be announced. PHB is exceeding all major goals for the Metro Housing Bond — thank you to the voters of the Metro region for supporting this vital work!
