About Modern Rich Apartments

In September 2012 IHI celebrated the grand opening of the Modern Rich Apartments, bringing 34 modern studio units to Portland's Old Town neighborhood. Originally built in 1905 as a railroad hotel, this great old building has housed many people over the decades and is now home to 34 people who work, go to school, and enjoy affordable living in Portland's downtown core. The Modern Rich's efficient urban studios blend an edgy modern aesthetic with cool historic elements and provide much-needed affordable workforce housing in Old Town. We punched the second floor light well through to the ground floor and created an interior courtyard that provides outdoor space for residents, access to new ground floor residential units, and outside dining for a new restaurant in one of seven revitalized commercial storefronts. IHI completed this project without any public funding, which gives us maximum flexibility in design and use, and also preserves scarce affordable housing resources.

Modern Rich Apartments is an apartment community located in Multnomah County and the 97209 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Portland School District 1j attendance zone.

Neighborhood

Nestled on the Willamette River in the heart of Portland, Old Town Chinatown is a quirky hub for nightlife spots, cocktail bars, Asian-inspired restaurants, and bustling streets that are closed to vehicles on the weekends. Home to the Portland Saturday Market, residents and visitors alike can enjoy this weekend event where craft vendors, food carts, and live entertainment await. Voodoo Doughnut is a must-visit in town, known for its creative donuts and whimsical shop. There is abundant history along the banks of the river in Old Town Chinatown. From the Oregon Maritime Museum to the Japanese American Historical Plaza, there’s plenty of history to explore here. There are several TriMet stations in town, so commuting is a breeze. Residents enjoy visiting the Lan Su Chinese Garden, a tranquil botanical garden with rare plants native to China, decorative stonework, and a charming tea shop.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
