Stillwater Crossing breaks ground; meanwhile, Stevens Road sale goes through, adding even more housing
A project that could very well be Bend's biggest affordable housing project to date is now underway.
Wishcamper Development Partners recently held a virtual groundbreaking ceremony on Stillwater Crossing—a $51.6 million, 240-unit affordable housing apartment community planned for Bend. The site is north of Ponderosa Street along Atwood Drive, parallel to Highway 97. Planning for the project began in 2019, and Wishcamper closed on financing in September.

A look at the virtual groundbreaking of the Stillwater Crossing Apartments.
According to a Wishcamper press release, the community will have one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments for working families and people who earn less than 60% of local median family income, or just under $46,000 for a family of four. Plans include an approximately 5,000-square-foot community building with recreational space, a fitness center, kitchen facilities and a community room to host free onsite services for residents and the surrounding community. Outdoor amenities will include a large splash pad, picnic and BBQ areas, community gardens and covered bike storage.
