An ambitious project that could add about 800 new apartments to Portland's Bayside neighborhood has cleared its first major hurdle.
The Portland planning board earlier this week approved the broad concept plans for the project, which call for 603 market-rate and 201 affordable units across seven city blocks. Each new proposed building will now be subject to its own site plan review.
The developers, Port Property Management and West Bayside Partners, have said the project would be built in five phases over 10 years. The first phase is expected to start with the construction of the 201 affordable units for those earning 60% of the area median income or less.
