Albina One
Albina One is the first built project in the Albina Vision Community Investment Plan - the nation’s largest restorative justice development project. After decades of land having been taken through eminent domain, this 93 -acre, multi-year initiative will re-expand Portland’s Albina neighborhood and make room for the Black community to return.
Albina One is designed to reflect Albina Vision Trust’s vision of connecting a sense of place, culture and community. The building comprises 94 affordable family units, and includes communally accessible balconies, courtyards and communal spaces, and the facade features murals by local BIPOC artists.
Speaker Chandra Robinson will share the engagement process for Albina One and walk through the design, including collaborations with local artists and how their input was incorporated into the design.
