Visions of Redevelopment for Portland's South Waterfront Released

Share this on:

DOWNTOWN PORTLAND’S, ZIDELL YARDS, LOCATED ON THE SOUTH WATERFRONT OF THE WILLAMETTE RIVER, HAS BIG PLANS OF REDEVELOPMENT BREWING.

As the largest, undeveloped site in the city of Portland, visions of parks, plazas, restaurants, condos, offices, and retail stores now dance through our heads from the Zidell family’s newly released renderings. Over a decade ago, George Diamond, Partner and Principal Broker at The Real Estate Investment Group, helped Williams and Dame assemble the first South Waterfront development blocks near the Zidell Family’s current 33-acre yard blocks.

Over the course of the past decade, the South Waterfront neighborhood has witnessed massive expansions of new high-rise condos and apartments constructed by the hands of several prominent developers such as Gerding Elden, Alamo Manhatttan, Mack Urban, and the Zidell Family. Along with the boom of gleaming, residential structures surrounding the Zidell Yards, the South Waterfront offers its local entrepreneurs, medical students, and residents convenient access to Downtown Portland through Trimet’s new stretches of public transit, OHSU’s ever-expanding medical university, and a brimming number of luxury amenities including up-scale gym, retail, and dining locations at every turn.

Our team of brokers here at The Real Estate Investment Group is excited to see continued investment in Portland’s latest, metropolitan neighborhood and continue to stay involved in the growth of the South Waterfront area through our current sale and leasing opportunities within the John Ross, Atwater , and Ella Apartments retail spaces.
