Sophisticated urban living:

Situated at the heart of Portland's Alberta Arts District, three 2BD / 2.5BA units and one studio strive to combine smart design with a community style of living. Unit entrances are accessed via a wood boardwalk through a central court, which serves to promote ample privacy and security within this bustling neighborhood. New Seasons Market, McMenamin's Kennedy School, Extracto Coffee House, and a number of well heeled eateries are all located within a few blocks.

Clean lines, basic materials, and simple colors are utilized to achieve an understated elegance; these choices are accented with various sustainable systems throughout the development.
