Located in the Boise-Eliot neighborhood, the community benefits from immediate access to three of Portland’s most well-known retail, dining and entertainment corridors – North Williams Avenue, North Mississippi Avenue and Northeast Alberta Street.

In addition, Parallax is surrounded by the city’s largest employers, including expanding Adidas and Daimler North American Headquarters.

Over the last 10 years, the area's resurgence has transformed it into a walkable, bikeable, mixed-use lifestyle and leisure activity hub that attracts highly paid and educated renters.

 The JLL Capital Markets investment sales team that represented the seller was led by Senior Managing Director Ira Virden, Senior Director Carrie Kahn and Associate Frank Solorzano.

 “The quality of construction, strong urban location and improving market fundamentals, combined with a substantial decline in the multi-housing development pipeline over the next 18 months make Parallax an extremely attractive investment opportunity today,” Kahn said.

“Additionally, its strong performance during an extraordinarily challenging time in the market highlights the resilience of well-located, high-quality apartment properties.”
