On May 10, Central City Concern, Related Northwest, state and local partners celebrated the completion of Crescent Court Apartments, 138 new affordable homes for low and very low-income families earning 30% – 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). Crescent Court Apartments is the second affordable development resulting from the partnership between Related Northwest and CCC. It’s located across the street from Cedar Commons, the partnership’s inaugural affordable development.  

“As the Portland metro region continues to face an affordable housing crisis, we’re thrilled to be opening Crescent Court Apartments in partnership with Related Northwest, offering a supportive housing community for very low-income families, communities of color, immigrants and refugees,” says CCC’s CEO & President Rachel Solotaroff. “Crescent Court Apartments is exactly the kind of solutions-oriented development our community needs. With myriad of on-site social services and after-school programs, Crescent Court Apartments will provide a compassionate, welcoming environment for families, children and those most in need in our community. We say welcome home!” 

What’s Inside 

Fifty percent (50%) of the apartments at Crescent Court are two and three-bedroom units, in response to the area’s high demand for family and multi-generational housing. The development is comprised of studios, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Rents range from $341-$1,410 per month. Seven units are designated as Permanent Supportive Housing for individuals who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Common area amenities include a community room with kitchen, shared laundry, internet stations, teen room, playground, on-site parking, and picnic area with barbecue. Outreach and leasing assistance are being provided by The Immigrant and Refugee Community Organization (IRCO). CCC is providing intensive on-site social services.
