Emmons Place – 146 units, estimated completion Spring 2023
Located in Portland’s immensely walkable Northwest neighborhood, NHA began construction on 146 studio units in a complex rehab/new construction project in July 2021. The building is named for Portland affordable housing advocate Susan Emmons who, as past executive director of NW Pilot Project, has been a passionate and determined voice to preserve and add affordable housing in Portland’s downtown neighborhoods. In lieu of holding a groundbreaking event, we created this video to share more about Emmons Place and Susan’s work.

These homes help families live healthy and stable lives, allow older adults to age in place, and offer Oregonians with disabilities a dignified home

This is amazing! I have a friend who is 74 and needs to find affordable housing. How do you determine who will live in these 146 units. Can she apply or what is the process?
Thanks
