Developer s ambition plans to solve Portland s homeless crisis April 23 2021
Homer Williams, a major player in the creation of the Pearl District, thinks big with tiny homes, public property
One of the leading developers of Portland s Pearl District says the city s homeless situation is about to worsen if local leaders don t jump on board with his vision.
Developer Homer Williams has spent the last several years of his retirement dedicating his mind and money to solving the homeless crisis in the Portland metro area.
Williams first launched the Oregon Harbor of Hope shelter to provide people essential services to stabilize their lives. He said nearly half of the people who use the shelter also go to work every day.
