Portland's Willamette Waterfront is calling. There are very few places in Portland where the river isn't just a view, it's a lifestyle. This is one of them. Front door to river in under a minute. Paddle board, boat, kayak, etc. straight from your doorstep. This single, coveted slip at Macadam Bay Club includes two beautifully updated small floating homes, each nestled against a peaceful, tree-lined bank with direct water access. A free boat slip just feet from the front door means the water's always ready when you are. Friends over for the weekend, each with their own separate space to stay. Move-in ready, with a newer steel and wood beam float foundation with a 4/5 rating, fresh decking, and interior updates throughout both homes. 2 parking spaces and the ability for your own garage make this one of the very best deals in Portland. Modern kitchens and bathrooms open into great room living, functional and extraordinary in equal measure. Live in one. Rent one. Host in both. The Willamette is waiting!

About Riverview
Cemetery
Riverview Cemetery, located between SW Macadam Ave and the Willamette River, is a residential and historic Portland neighborhood with winding hillside roads and a quiet, evergreen canopy. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along SW Taylors Ferry Rd near the Riverview Cemetery gates, where commuter traffic meets a contemplative landscape of stonework and old-growth trees. Riverview Cemetery itself sets the tone with curving lanes, memorial architecture, and broad river-and-city viewpoints. Nearby, Tryon Creek State Natural Area adds forest trails and a creek corridor that shape daily routines. Housing skews toward mid-century and contemporary homes tucked into steep lots, with frequent glimpses of the river. The pace feels measured, with nature and topography doing most of the talking.

Commercial/Mixed Use 2
The Commercial/Mixed Use 2 (CM2) zone is a medium scale zone intended for sites in a variety of centers, along corridors, and in other mixed use areas that have frequent transit service. The zone allows a wide range and mix of commercial and residential uses, as well as employment uses that have limited off-site impacts. Buildings in this zone will generally be up to four stories tall unless height and floor area bonuses are used, or plan district provisions specify other height limits. Development is intended to be pedestrian-oriented, provide a strong relationship between buildings and sidewalks, and complement the scale of surrounding residentially zoned areas.
