    Pearl District Access and Circulation Plan Existing Conditions Report Introduction This report reviews existing conditions related to land use and transportation in the study area. The Pearl District is located within the larger River District Urban Renewal Area, and is bordered by NW Broadway Avenue to the east, Interstate 405 to the west, W Burnside to the south, and the Willamette River to the north (Map 1). Below is a brief summary of existing conditions. For more detailed discussion of the transportation issues in the area, additional information, data, and maps are provided following the summary. Summary The Pearl District has street system and urban form characteristics that are similar to the Downtown and Old Town/Chinatown neighborhoods, with generally the same 200‐foot by 200‐foot block grid, and dense, mixed commercial/residential development. However, unlike its neighbors, much of the Pearl has been almost entirely rebuilt over the last 15 years with a predominance of residential construction. Fueled by infrastructure investments and a set of policies and development agreements following the River District Urban Renewal Area’s creation in 1998, the District has experienced rapid residential and commercial growth. The urban neighborhood built through these efforts has become a national model for inner city redevelopment. The District has many of the transportation characteristics of healthy, mature, 24‐hour mixed use areas, including high pedestrian and transit use, low reliance on the automobile compared to suburban areas, and a mix of residential, office, institutional and retail uses. As a result, Pearl residents, employers and visitors travel half as much by car as the regional average, and have much lower carbon emissions per capita from transportation sources.
