The remaining units are set aside for community members with limited incomes.

In November 2016, Portland voters passed the city’s first-ever housing bond, dedicating $258.4 million to create permanently affordable homes across our city. The Starlight is part of this investment and is moving Portland forward, making progress toward meeting the diverse housing needs of our community.J﻿oin emcee Multnomah County Chair Deborah Kafoury along with CCC&#x27;s new President and CEO Andy Mendenhall, M.D., Howard Weiner of Cal Skate and many others as we joyously celebrate this milestone event.Featuring the Portland Interfaith Gospel Choir, pop up art gallery coordinated by the Everett Station Lofts and p:ear, catering from Stone Soup and more - join us!  Note: Paid street parking available as well as multiple City Center parking lots.
