Social Housing Pilot — 879 Congress Street / PHA-PHDC Model
Description
A second pilot model: city-financed and city-owned rental units added within a Portland Housing Authority or PHDC development, with 879 Congress Street as an immediate case study.
Impact summary
Leverages an already-approved PHA project to get city-owned affordable units built faster and cheaper — but timing and financing rules make it complicated.
