In partnership with Centro Cultural, Alder 9 will be a 159-unit community for low-income seniors and intergenerational families at 30% and 60% Area Median Income.  Located in the heart of Central Eastside Portland, twenty-five units will be set aside for Permanent Supportive Housing to serve those who are houseless or at-risk of houselessness. There will be forty-two dedicated family-sized units serving a range of seniors, age 55+ and older.

The nine-story development will include a ground floor senior wellness center complete with social and activity spaces, including a fitness/movement room, and case management offices.  There will be plenty of places for residents to gather and connect, including a community garden and courtyard.  Alder 9 will be a community hub, providing a home for community-based organizations to offer essential services to the residents.  Centro Cultural will operate the Employment and Education Mobility Hub and provide culturally and linguistically relevant educational and employment services.  Impact Northwest will provide wraparound services to the twenty-five units of permanent supportive housing, and EngAGE NW will offer a host of senior services and arts programming at the ground floor arts center.  Completion is expected in 2025.
