The OMSI District on the east bank of the Willamette River is now over a decade old, and still mostly theoretical.
On Wednesday, the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry shared updated renderings of its plans, showcasing swanky glass apartment buildings, lively storefronts and communal green spaces covering 10 blocks of the inner eastside.
The project launched in 2008 and has received money from the city, Metro and the state to create a neighborhood district with a focus on climate and science.
The plans include: 1,200 housing units, a waterfront education park focusing on Indigenous heritage, mixed-use commercial and residential buildings, and new storefronts.
