Can Portland solve its housing crisis?
Manage episode 433823508 series 2586574
Portland, like much of Oregon, is still in the throes of a housing crisis. Rents and home prices continue to squeeze some residents and move further out of reach for many more. Developers who could help reverse these troubling tends are skittish.
Meanwhile, the dream of converting swaths of empty offices in Portland’s beleaguered downtown to apartments remains elusive and unlikely to materialize in the near future — if ever.
On the latest Beat Check, reporters Shane Dixon Kavanaugh and Jonathan Bach discuss Portland’s housing crunch and how it could be solved.
