Equality Community Center | 23-25 Casco Str. | Portland

There was one committee member who inquired about this development being higher at the last workshop - I can't remember what exactly DC said in response, but I think it came down to them being affordable units + how it's being funded and/or incentives that made it not possible to go higher. It is a shame, though.

Agreed, very unfortunate. The city needs to figure it out. If they want affordable housing they need to provide funding and loans to the developers in charge to make it happen.

Thank goodness they're moving away from that cheap looking metal cladding that seems so pervasive in Portland

Now if we can just move away from the gray and black color schemes.

LGBTQ+ equality center to break ground on affordable housing complex in Portland

They're saying fall - not really any other new info in this except that they've selected Penobscot General Contractors to build it.
