The Dr. Darrell Millner Building brings 63 affordable apartment homes to North Portland. The building was developed using over $9 million in Metro affordable housing bond funds.
Funded in part by the Metro affordable housing bond, the new community has doubled the small town’s affordable housing inventory.
Metro’s affordable housing bond helped fund the construction of Las Flores, a housing development in Oregon City with 171 homes. Seventy apartments are for households who earn 30% of the area median income or less, and 129 apartments have two or more bedrooms.
Metro’s affordable housing bond and transit-oriented development program helped fund the construction of Cedar Rising, an affordable housing complex in Aloha. Thirty-three apartments are reserved for households with incomes at or below 30% of the area median income.
Built with funds from Metro’s affordable housing bond, the new apartment complex provides homes for 150 households with an emphasis on meeting the needs of farmworkers, and Latine and Somali immigrant families.
