Northwest Portland

Northwest Portland has a wonderful mix of flavor of residents ranging from budding artists to entrepreneurs, seniors to young professionals. They live and work there because it calls to them. From the wonderful boutique shops along 23rd and popular hangouts at coffee shops and art gallaries to the new Pearl District booming with lofts (at a mere $300 a foot to build) and the largely industrial properties to the north, the proximity to downtown and Portland's elaborate freeway system, Northwest Portland hosts a wide range of socioeconomic diversity.

Nob Hill

If you like the feel of San Francisco, you will love the many restored Victorian homes found along the congested tree-lined avenues found in many urban cities. Considered one of the most densely populated areas in Portland, Nob Hill is touted as Portland's most fashionable neighborhood. There is great pride with the residents, committed to creating a friendly Bohemian lifestyle.

Pearl District

A once run down industrial warehouse district with aged brick construction, the Pearl District has transformed into the mecca of downtown loft living. New restaurants, art galleries, new retail and the relocation of computer companies, advertising agencies etc. etc. has made the Pearl District the place to be. Future urban development calls for over 5,000 new housing units, markets, new urban parks along with a Central City Streetcar servicing local residents to the city core for free makes the Pearl District even that more exciting for the city dwellers at heart.

Old Town / China Town

Serving the Chinese and Japanese communities during Portland's past, Old Town/China Town culture still remains. Imagine the stories one could tell about this once bustling area for sailors and loggers to relax and unwind. A mix of the old and new is evident by the corner grocery stores with wood floors and the recently completed $8 million Chinese Classical Gardens. The diversity of services is as wide as the diversity of housing. For- profit businesses reside adjacent to government funded social service agencies while single-resident hotels coexist next to modern upper-end apartments featuring storefront retail space for the would be artist or entrepeneur.

Linnton

Once a thriving riverfront community, in 1910 Linnton had two newspapers, seven saloons, a police force and its own jail, and railroad service with 17 passenger trains per day. The depression and several lumber mills burning to the ground left Linnton without growth for years. Recently, however, Linnton has been rediscovered by the bold and the daring. The last best commute to Portland has accelerated Linnton's growth with new homes dotting the hillside and a master plan in place that will guide proposed development along the last untouched stretch of the Willamette River.
