The Portland City Council heard testimony Wednesday from the Pearl District residents who live in tall towers and fear a new development will block their views of the Fremont Bridge from their windows and Fields Park.
Thus, they are opposing the construction of Fremont Place Apartments, slated to rise near the Fremont Bridge.
Beato pointed out that condo residents in the Pearl District have no right to stop owners of adjacent lots to gain a good view of the Fremont Bridge so they could preserve theirs.
While dozens showed up to oppose the project, just a handful came out to support the Fremont Place Apartments, other than its developers, but among them were two past presidents of the Pearl District Neighborhood Association.
“I am horrified by the idea that this neighborhood could become an urban gated community for the landed class,” wrote Patricia Gardner in a longer letter to City Council, before her testimony.
The city’s design commission has approved the project, but the Pearl District Neighborhood Association has appealed in an attempt to halt or modify the project that would block views of the Fremont Bridge.
