Enjoy the ease of single-level living, paired with the convenience of deeded, secure parking located directly within the building.

An all-in-one package that blends comfort, convenience, and location seamlessly.
Cathedral Park, located between St. Johns and the Willamette River, is a residential and riverside Portland neighborhood with a landmark bridge and a broad waterfront lawn. The neighborhood’s character concentrates under the Gothic arches of the St. Johns Bridge at Cathedral Park, where picnic blankets, dog walkers, and weekend events share the river breeze. Modest early-20th-century houses and small apartment courts line leafy streets that slope toward the water. The social calendar often points to Cathedral Park Jazz Festival, while nearby pillars like St. Johns Theater & Pub and Slim’s Restaurant & Bar anchor local nights out. A short climb leads to forested trails at Pier Park, adding a quiet, green counterpoint to the riverfront scene.

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.
