Modern urban living in the heart of Goose Hollow

The Civic, a 16-story condominium tower completed in 2008, stands as a contemporary landmark in Portland's historic Goose Hollow neighborhood. With 261 units, this LEED Gold certified building offers residents a blend of eco-friendly design and urban convenience. Located steps away from Providence Park, home of the Portland Timbers and Thorns, The Civic places residents at the center of the city's vibrant sports and cultural scene.

Versatile layouts with panoramic city views

The Civic offers a range of floor plans to suit various lifestyles, from cozy studios to spacious two-bedroom units. Studios, spanning 677 to 738 square feet, provide efficient living spaces with prices around $280,000. One-bedroom units, ranging from 670 to 1,334 square feet, offer more room and flexibility, with prices from $249,000 to $350,000. For those seeking additional space, two-bedroom units range from 1,180 to 2,102 square feet, priced between $425,000 and $850,000. Many units boast floor-to-ceiling windows, flooding the interiors with natural light and framing stunning views of the city skyline, West Hills, and on clear days, even Mount Hood and Mount St. Helens. The open-concept layouts create a sense of spaciousness, while high ceilings, some reaching up to 9 feet with exposed concrete, add an industrial-chic aesthetic. Kitchens feature stainless steel appliances, gas cooktops, and sleek cabinetry, often complemented by granite or quartz countertops. Some units offer kitchen islands, perfect for casual dining or entertaining. Bathrooms are equipped with modern fixtures, and many master suites include walk-in closets and en-suite bathrooms. Hardwood floors, typically in mahogany or oak, run throughout the main living areas, while bedrooms may feature plush carpeting. Many units include private balconies or Juliet balconies, offering outdoor space to enjoy the urban atmosphere. In-unit laundry with full-size washers and dryers comes standard, adding convenience to daily life. Storage is ample, with many units featuring walk-in closets, pantries, and additional storage spaces. Some two-bedroom units even include built-in Murphy beds or office nooks, maximizing the versatility of the space.

Sustainable living with urban comforts

The Civic's LEED Gold certification underscores its commitment to sustainable urban living. The building offers a range of amenities designed to enhance residents' quality of life while minimizing environmental impact. Security and convenience are paramount, with a 24-hour concierge service and secure entry system. The underground parking garage provides residents with deeded parking spaces, a rarity in urban Portland. For those who prefer two wheels to four, there's ample bike storage available. The building's energy-efficient design includes central heating and cooling systems, with costs often included in the HOA fees. This, combined with other utilities like water, sewer, and natural gas, helps residents manage their monthly expenses more effectively. For outdoor enjoyment, The Civic offers shared green spaces and balconies, providing areas for relaxation and social interaction. Pet owners will appreciate the building's pet-friendly policy, making it easier to keep furry friends in the heart of the city. While The Civic may not boast extensive resort-style amenities, its thoughtful design and services create a comfortable, efficient living environment. The focus here is on providing essential comforts and conveniences that support an active, urban lifestyle.

A vibrant urban enclave with rich history and modern flair

The Civic sits at the heart of Goose Hollow, one of Portland's most historic and eclectic neighborhoods. This area, once home to flocks of geese in the 19th century, has evolved into a dynamic urban community that seamlessly blends its storied past with contemporary city living. At the neighborhood's core is Providence Park, a venerable sports venue that hosts Portland Timbers and Thorns soccer matches. On game days, the area buzzes with energy as fans flood local bars and restaurants. Beyond sports, Goose Hollow offers a diverse array of cultural experiences. The Artists Repertory Theater, just a short walk away, presents thought-provoking performances year-round. Culinary enthusiasts will find plenty to explore in Goose Hollow and its surrounding areas. From the upscale dining at RingSide Steakhouse to the casual fare at the historic Goose Hollow Inn, founded by former Portland mayor Bud Clark, the neighborhood caters to all tastes and budgets. For quick bites, chains like Shake Shack and local favorites like Nong's Khao Man Gai are within easy reach. Shopping options abound, with a mix of local boutiques and national retailers. Zupan's Markets, an upscale local grocery chain, is just blocks away, offering gourmet and organic options. For more extensive shopping trips, Pioneer Place mall and the trendy boutiques of the nearby Pearl District are easily accessible. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Washington Park, a 410-acre urban oasis that houses the Oregon Zoo, Portland Japanese Garden, and miles of hiking trails. Closer to home, Couch Park provides a neighborhood green space perfect for picnics or a quick escape from city life. The neighborhood's location also puts residents within easy reach of downtown Portland's business district, making it an ideal home base for professionals. With its mix of historic charm, modern amenities, and urban convenience, Goose Hollow offers a quintessential Portland living experience.

Unparalleled connectivity in the heart of Portland

The Civic's location in Goose Hollow places residents at a transportation nexus, offering multiple options for navigating Portland and beyond. The area's excellent transit infrastructure makes car-free living not just possible, but convenient. Public transportation is abundant and easily accessible. The MAX light rail system, with its Red and Blue lines, has a stop just steps from The Civic. These lines provide direct access to downtown Portland, the airport, and suburbs like Beaverton and Hillsboro. For those preferring bus travel, multiple lines serve the area, including routes along Burnside Street that connect to various parts of the city. Cyclists will find Goose Hollow exceptionally accommodating. The neighborhood's flat terrain and extensive network of bike lanes make pedaling a popular choice for commuting and leisure. For those who prefer to walk, the neighborhood's compact layout and pedestrian-friendly streets make it easy to accomplish daily errands on foot. Many residents find they can reach most of their regular destinations within a 15-minute walk. While the excellent public transit and walkability often reduce the need for personal vehicles, The Civic's secure underground parking garage provides peace of mind for car owners. This is particularly valuable given the challenges of street parking in the area. For longer trips, access to major thoroughfares is straightforward, making it easy to reach other parts of Portland or embark on road trips to the Oregon coast or Mount Hood. The Portland International Airport is about a 25-minute drive away, or easily accessible via the MAX Red Line, providing convenient options for air travelers. This comprehensive transportation network not only facilitates easy movement around the city but also contributes to the neighborhood's vibrant, connected feel. Whether commuting to work, heading out for a night on the town, or planning a weekend getaway, residents of The Civic find themselves well-positioned to take advantage of all that Portland has to offer.
