LA GRANDE â The proposal for a new low-income housing complex in La Grande would have an intergenerational flair.
The Portland firm Community Development Partners is heading up the work to develop Timber Ridge Apartments on 4.79 acres on East Q Avenue between 26th and 27th streets. Dan Steffey of Community Development Partners said the $23.7 million, 104-unit complex âwould be a community that would be a welcoming home for people of all generations.â
Steffey and Engage, a consulting group, are developing a Community for All Ages model for Timber Ridge. That plan also is set to be in place at new low-income housing complexes in St. Helens, Gresham and Oregon City. The one in Gresham was recently completed and those in St. Helens and Oregon City are in the pre-development phase.
