Con-way Master Plan developers are scheduled to appear before the Portland Design Commission in early April, and details of their plans for blocks 294E and 295E show one building with six stories and another with up to 13.

The development at Block 295E, the southernmost of the two, is expected to have five floors of residential units above ground-level commercial space and two below-grade floors of vehicle parking.

Block 294E will have up to 13 stories of residential space over ground-level commercial space and two floors of underground parking.

The two parcels are part of a superblock bounded on the north by Thurman Street, on the south by Raleigh Street and on the east by Northwest 21st Avenue.

GBD Architects has also designed a 60-foot-wide walkway that will run north-south slightly west of the two buildings, bisecting the superblock between Northwest 21st and 22nd avenues.

Plans submitted to the city are preliminary, but show a mixture of studios and one-bedroom units.

A call to Bruce Brown of GBD Architects was not returned by press time.

The 16-acre Con-way Master Plan was approved by the city in 2011. The project will eventually deliver between 1,000 and 1,500 residential units, including some affordable housing, and approximately 500,000 total square feet of retail and office space.

The developers are scheduled to appear before the design commission at 1:30 p.m. on April 2.
