The CCC Housing Office closed the Interested Parties Waitlist (IPL) 5:00PM PST on Friday 6/23/23. After that date, pre-applications will not be accepted for the waitlist.
The Katherine Gray (formerly known as the Martha Washington) is a four-story building located in the heart of downtown Portland. The Katherine Gray consists of both studio and one-bedroom units, with both project-based Section 8 subsidized units and fair market units (rent restricted but no rent subsidy).
How to apply will be changing in July, please check back later for more information.
After the 6/23/23 closure, CCC Housing will decommission the IPL and change up the process for renting out fair market units (income/rent restricted units without subsidy attached) starting in early July 2023. Changes include individual/per property waitlists, more routine purging of lists, and updated Building Criteria for each participating building. These changes will give staff the ability to respond more efficiently to applicants and provide more meaningful timelines for accessing housing in CCC’s downtown portfolio.
To allay any concerns, existing applicants on the IPL will be transitioned over to the property waitlists they originally applied for and will retain the same pre-application date and time of submittal. Put another way, existing applicants on the waitlist will not be put at any disadvantage as a result of the change.
More information will follow by email and on our website when the change has been made. Please reach out if there are any questions in the meantime.
Units at The Katherine Gray are income and rent restricted based on a percentage of Median Family Income (%MFI) for Multnomah County. Households must earn annual income below the corresponding %MFI to be eligible for the unit. Click here for information to help you determine the maximum income limit.
