High ceilings, hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and courtyard views give this charming Embassy studio a bright, inviting feel. Set in a classic 1925 building, the home retains original character, including the mosaic tile bathroom floor. The unit includes deeded storage, and the building offers a fitness room, community laundry, a landscaped courtyard, and all-new plumbing installed in 2024. With a Walk Score of 98 and Bike Score of 96, Providence Park, Couch Park, Trader Joe’s, and the restaurants, cafes, bars, and shops of NW 21st and NW 23rd are just blocks away. Historic charm and a prime NW Portland location in a charming city home.
Alphabet District, located between Burnside Street and NW Thurman Street, is a historic and walkable Portland neighborhood with Victorian-era streetscapes and a dense café-and-boutique scene. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along NW 23rd Avenue near NW Lovejoy Street, where sidewalk patios, indie shops, and small galleries keep the blocks in motion. Community pillars include Cinema 21, the Mission Theater, and Powell’s Books on Burnside. Tree-lined blocks mix ornate old homes with brick apartment buildings and courtyard entries. Forest Park’s edge frames the west side with trailheads and a cooler, wooded feel. Streetcar stops and frequent bus lines stitch the district to downtown without changing its residential rhythm.

Residential Multi-Dwelling 4 zone
The RM4 zone is a high density, urban-scale multi-dwelling zone applied near the Central City, and in town centers, station areas, and along civic corridors that are served by frequent transit and are close to commercial services. It is intended to be an intensely urban zone with a high percentage of building coverage and a strong building orientation to the pedestrian environment of streets, with buildings located close to sidewalks with little or no front setback. This is a mid-rise to high-rise zone with buildings of up to seven or more stories. The Design overlay zone is applied to this zone.
