About the Inner Eastside Infrastructure Assessment

Guided by Portland's Housing Production Strategy, the Inner Eastside Infrastructure Assessment is a technical analysis that evaluates the ability of existing infrastructure in Inner Eastside to accommodate growth and identifies further infrastructure planning and improvements that may be needed to support different conceptual growth scenarios.

This report was a collaborative effort between the Bureau of Planning and Sustainability, and the Bureau of Environmental Services, the Water Bureau, and Portland Bureau of Transportation. It establishes a foundation to guide future planning for the Inner Eastside and helps to prioritize planning efforts and capital improvement projects across city bureaus.
