West Bayside Multifamily Home for Sale

West Bayside in Portland is a neighborhood in transition, evolving from its industrial roots into a vibrant, mixed-use community. This central Portland area is known for its walkability, with residents easily accessing local bakeries, restaurants, breweries, and grocery stores like Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods. Entertainment options include bowling at Bayside Bowl, live music, and film screenings at the Apohadion Theater. The neighborhood also features the Bayside Trail, a 1-mile paved walkway adorned with murals that connects to East Bayside. Just north of West Bayside is Back Cove, a scenic spot for walking and watching sunsets. The area is undergoing significant development, with Port Property leading a multi-phase project that will introduce over 600 market-rate units, 201 affordable housing units, and nearly 30,000 square feet of commercial space, enhancing the neighborhood's walkability and appeal. Current housing options include historic homes and multifamily properties, with some dating back to the late 19th century. West Bayside is home to Portland High School, the largest high school in the city, and East End Community School for younger children. The neighborhood provides convenient access to I-295 and Franklin Street, with East End Beach just two miles away and South Portland’s Willard Beach a short drive over the Casco Bay Bridge. As new projects come to fruition, West Bayside is poised to become one of the most desirable areas in Portland.
