Powellhurst-Gilbert, located between SE Powell Blvd and SE Foster Rd, is a residential and commercial Portland neighborhood with broad arterial streets and a patchwork of postwar ranch homes. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the SE 122nd Ave and SE Powell Blvd crossroads, where taquerias, international groceries, and practical storefronts set a working-day rhythm. Mid-century houses sit beside newer infill, with long driveways, mature street trees, and small apartment courts. Ed Benedict Park adds ballfields and open lawns that shape daily routines. Leach Botanical Garden brings a quieter, wooded counterpoint along Johnson Creek. The Springwater Corridor Trail threads the edge for bike commutes and weekend loops.

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.
