The new MAX line will have 3 stops right in this neighborhood alone! Because of that, the city has been pouring money into Lents since early 2004- building new streets and sidewalks, new businesses, and lending money to home buyers, businesses and multi-complex investors to remodel and improve everything! It used to be known as Felony Flats- but has done a complete about face in the past 2 or 3 years. It qualifies for the 20% Downpayment Assistance Program through the Portland Development Commission- in other words, the PDC will pay for 20% of your house- and you don’t have to pay it back until you sell…with no interest! It also qualifies for the PDC remodeling loan, which loans you money to fix up your house- and you don’t pay that back until you sell either!! If you keep it for 30 years, you never have to pay it back! They still have money available- and the urban renewal will continue till 2016. This is exactly what happened in North Portland several years ago. It used to be a “Drive-by Only,” if you don’t want to get shot…..but has become a really hot cool urban neighborhood that is high demand and expensive! Think about University Place, Piedmont, Overlook, Kenton…..they are all hot neighborhoods and hard to get into- All because of the coming of the MAX and the city pouring this money into it! That is what is happening to Lents.
