What does that mean that they don’t even want to attempt a few floors of residential? Is this developer just crazy, or is the current environment so stacked against residential development now? If so, it seems like there must be some way to use the housing bond money to incentivize adding residential units here.

I checked the permits on Portland Maps. I didn't see anything about a variance for a 1 story structure, only the reactivation of the construction permit. I'm not sure if that means anything.
