From this week's Housing Committee meeting materials, no renderings that I can find:

Portland Housing Development Corporation (PHDC) is requesting $500,000 in Affordable Housing Development funding to construct a new six story, 60 unit building at 337 Cumberland Avenue. The site is currently owned by Youth and Family Outreach (YFO), who will lease it for 90 years to 337 Cumberland Avenue, LP, who will be the development owner. The first floor will include expansion space for Youth and Family Outreach; the new space will allow the organization to support 49 additional children (for a total of 107 children). The upper five floors will contain 60 apartments with a mix of apartment types and a blend of income targets. The five upper floors will be comprised of 19 studio apartments, 16 one-bedroom apartments, 15 two-bedroom apartments, and 10 three-bedroom apartments.
 
Some "renderings" (sketches) of the proposed building

Thanks for sharing, Cosakita. Looks like a great scale for this part of town.
 
This project is back (As 331 Cumberland Avenue)


Plans call for a 5-6 story, 60-unit affordable housing building. The difference this time is that the new building will extend all the way to the corner of Cumberland and Preble and demolish both the former Maria’s Restaurant and the Youth & Family Outreach building (the former church) which will relocate to the ground floor of this new building.

Glad to see this is back - assuming there will be significant push back on the former church on the corner.

I don't think it will be hugely controversial. It's not a historic building or in a historic district and it's been owned by YFO for many years.
 
LOL ... they can sell the building for $1 and require it be moved if people are that worried about it.

Also ... proposed 5-6 stories in actuality will turn into 3-4 stories just like the building on the corner of Middle and Franklin,
