Foster-Powell, located between Mount Tabor and Lents, is a residential and commercial Portland neighborhood with a long stretch of storefronts and a grid of tree-lined side streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along SE Foster Road near SE 52nd Avenue, where taquerias, bottle shops, music rooms, and small galleries keep the sidewalks active. Vintage bungalows and mid-century ranches mix with newer townhomes, giving the blocks a layered, lived-in look. The Foster Floodplain Natural Area adds a quiet ribbon of wetlands and paths. Community pillars like the Clinton Street Theater, 5 & Dime, and Assembly Brewing anchor nights out with cult films, pinball, and wood-fired pies.

The RM2 zone is a medium-scale multi-dwelling zone that is generally applied in and around a variety of centers and corridors that are well-served by transit. Allowed housing is characterized by buildings of up to three or four stories with a higher percentage of building coverage than in the RM1 zone, while still providing opportunities for landscaping and outdoor spaces that integrate with residential neighborhood characteristics. The major types of new housing development will be a diverse range of multi-dwelling structures and other compact housing that contribute to the intended urban scale of centers and corridors, while providing transitions in scale and characteristics to lower-scale residential neighborhoods.
