At the site I have chosen on NE 9th Avenue and NE Holladay Street, I will be proposing a mixed-use housing development with commercial use at the ground floor. The buildings facing Holladay will respond to the Farmers Market across the street and have strong pedestrian-oriented building facades.
The opposing corner of the site, which faces NE Multnomah Street, will most likely be Mixed-Use Tower of condominiums with a podium building below of commercial and office use. My efforts will be focused towards the development that faces Holladay, but the tower scheme is simply an idea on what the entire site could potentially become. This development is related closely with the schemes proposed in the Lloyd District Development Strategy that was created by the Portland Development Committee in 2001.
