PORTLAND, OR—After more than a decade of community debate and numerous failed redevelopment plans, Alberta Commons, a 25,0000-square-foot shopping district located in the Alberta District of Northeast Portland, has come to life with a lineup of anchor tenants and local businesses that have helped connect the community to its past and define its path forward. The project was originated through a program at Prosper Portland, developed by Majestic Realty Co. and built by Portland-based Colas Construction.
The site is located at 5015 NE Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. on the block bordered by MLK Jr. Boulevard, Alberta Street, Garfield Avenue and Sumner Street.
