Neighborhood


Portland is a city of neighborhoods - each with its own distinctive character. The city's excellent transportation system, including the MAX light-rail network, buses, Portland Streetcar and freeways, highways, streets and bike paths make travel throughout the region's many communities and the Central City pleasant and easy.

Located in and adjacent to the Cultural District and Goose Hollow neighborhoods, the Gentry, Winston and Commodore Apartments each provide convenient access to all the best Portland has to offer.
