Northeast Portland offers a bit of everything… peaceful, established neighborhoods amidst the urban renewal along Martin Luther King Avenue and the Alberta Arts District… historically spectacular homes among contemporary beauties. First-time buyers will find plenty of options, families will uncover treasures in numerous kid-friendly areas, and empty nesters just might find their dream homes yet.

Historic Irvington is a haven for kids and pedestrians, as it offers quiet residential streets filled with Victorians, colonial revivals, and craftsman homes, bordered on both sides by bustling districts alive with cafes, boutiques, and night spots. One of Portland's few purely residential neighborhoods, Alameda features truly spectacular historic homes along its quiet, tree-lined streets, plus some of the best views of the city along its ridge. Hollywood, on the other hand, pairs older homes full of character and charm with convenient thoroughfares, shops and restaurants - all within walking distance. A true revitalization success story, the Alberta Arts District has transformed itself into a hip, urban destination studded with gleaming new restaurants, colorful art, and interesting shopping.
