Fairview Food Cart Pod and Fairview Creek Redevelopment Assistance
Cascadia Partners took Fairview's food cart pod from feasibility through operator selection, and the pod was built in 2022.
Bend Southeast Area Plan
Cascadia Partners tested how Bend could pay for infrastructure in its Southeast Area without pricing out the housing the plan calls for.
Asheville Missing Middle Housing Initiative
Cascadia Partners showed where middle housing in Asheville can pencil for builders and stay attainable for workers, and where displacement risk calls for protections.
