The Living Smart Project
The Living Smart Project The City of Portland has witnessed growth in the popularity of affordable homes built on the small in-fill lots. In a number of neighborhoods, where the typical development occurred on 5,000 square foot lots, the underlying historic plat and zoning regulations allowed in-fill development on 25-foot wide by 100-foot deep parcels. Built on these narrow lots, 15-foot wide houses have become important in meeting the City’s need for entry-level single-family homes.
The Living Smart Project arose from growing neighborhood opposition to in-fill development that appeared out of scale with the surrounding neighborhood and triggered the demolition of existing houses.

 2121 Belmont Belmont Street is most vibrant amid the bars and shops and restaurants that line the street in the Southeast 30s. On Southeast Morrison Street, a pocket of city life teems closer to the Willamette River, in the corridor that starts around Southeast 15th Avenue.
With 2121 Belmont, the 123-unit condo project under construction on a 300-foot stretch of land between Belmont and Morrison streets, developers say they’re bridging a connection between the two vibes.
And it’s a spot developers say people will pay bigger prices to live in – and they’re stepping out on a ledge with their one- and two-bedroom condos, which will run between $260,000 and $550,000.
The development is one of the first upscale projects to hit the neighborhood. The project, a joint venture between Williams & Dame Development and Reliance Development, plants a series of four- and five-story buildings bordered by outdoor living spaces.
