Tryon-Stephens Plan
(Continued from Page 1)
Capitol Highway between Multnomah
Boulevard and Taylors Ferry Road.
In a letter read by Multnomah’s Jessica
Wade, Ashcreek recommended that the city
close the gap in the active transportation
network by requiring developers to build
street and stormwater improvements and
not allow “waivers of remonstrance” on
busy streets where the infrastructure is
critical to accessing key destinations.
Although previous roundtable and
online input rated Capitol Highway the
number one priority, the Tryon-Stephens
Plan recommends “forming a tailored
strategy to address the unique challenges
and opportunities within the study area by
taking a coordinated approach to addressing
gaps in both street connectivity and the
stormwater system.”
Wade, who has been fighting to make the
“Garden Home” section of Capitol Highway
a safer route for years, said, “This association
needs to take a position on the Tryon-
Stephens Headwaters Plan.” However, after
several motions and a friendly amendment,
the motion did not pass.
Other plan recommendations include
connections in Hillsdale linking Nevada
Court to Vermont Street between 26th
Avenue and Capitol Hill Road, and in
Markham linking Marigold Street between
23rd and 26th avenues.
The hearing will be held at City Hall council
chambers on Wednesday, Nov. 4 at 10:15

percent since they opened.
Smith said they have a mailing list of 3000
people. “I think as people discover us, there’s
a new reason to become a member.”
Someday in the future, Nordic NW will
own the next-door property with the Steiner
cabin which it will keep as a living heritage
museum.
With a long history of working with
nonprofit arts organizations, Smith says he
looks forward to helping build a sense of
place and connection to the Nordic people.
“My personal joy is in learning myself as I
help others learn about things they may not
have known,” Smith said.
“I feel like I get to enjoy all of my own
personal passions through the types of
programs and activities we bring to people
here, while also creating a sense of legacy
for the region, for the city and for the state.
So, it’s a marvelous sense of accomplishing
something that will have lasting impact on
a region.”

village,” cried one woman. “You can’t find a
more livable community but then you want
to alter it!”
“We realize progress has to happen,”
McCarthy said, standing to address Manning
and his staff, “but you have not listened to us
after we have repeatedly petitioned the city
with our concerns with nothing in return!
“You are harming our community,”
McCarthy insisted. “We have asked to
be a corridor, not a center, and you have
not responded. What can we do to get
Multnomah Village zoned to CM1?”
Manning, who remained relatively calm
most of the evening, despite the comments
and flaring tempers, said the bureau of
planning will have to evaluate it and see how
it fits into the proposed recommendations.
The most recent iteration of the mixed-use
zones concept report has been published

“Please plan to attend the hearing on
Nov. 19 at 3 p.m.,” McCarthy’s wrote to
