Hawthorne, located between the Willamette River and Mount Tabor, is a walkable and shop-lined Portland neighborhood with a vintage storefront rhythm and a leafy residential grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along SE Hawthorne Blvd around SE 37th–39th, where record shops, indie boutiques, coffee counters, and late-night bites keep the sidewalks busy. Powell’s Books on Hawthorne, Bagdad Theater & Pub, and McMenamins’ movie-and-pint tradition anchor the area’s cultural routine. Early-20th-century bungalows and classic Portland foursquares sit behind mature street trees and pocket gardens. Bike lanes and frequent bus service tie the corridor to nearby parks and the riverfront. Food carts and patios add a casual cadence from afternoon through evening.

RM2
Residential Multi-Dwelling 2 zone
The RM2 zone is a medium-scale multi-dwelling zone that is generally applied in and around a variety of centers and corridors that are well-served by transit. Allowed housing is characterized by buildings of up to three or four stories with a higher percentage of building coverage than in the RM1 zone, while still providing opportunities for landscaping and outdoor spaces that integrate with residential neighborhood characteristics. The major types of new housing development will be a diverse range of multi-dwelling structures and other compact housing that contribute to the intended urban scale of centers and corridors, while providing transitions in scale and characteristics to lower-scale residential neighborhoods.
