1. Housing Displacement: In reality, the Portland Gateway project creates roughly 300 units of safe affordable housing while displacing about 40 degraded slum units. The Many Rivers project displaces no housing.
2. Free Store: It is difficult to comprehend why anyone would object to this, given the creation of multiple affordable units and the revitalization of under-used, low-density land. 3. Peace House does awesome work, but that area is a blighted, bleak magnet for drug and prostitution activity. Alan Arthur of CCHT is making good faith efforts to include Peace House in Gateway plans. Developers have also graciously said they would not resort to eminent domain to acquire the property.
