The <br />proposed apartment building is precisely the kind of development Eugene needs, and currently lacks. More housing has <br />been suggested as one way to improve downtown safety, by increasing street-level activity by people who live and work <br />there. As someone who works downtown, I care about the environment there. When I first moved to Eugene as a young <br />professional, I would have welcomed an opportunity to live in a place like the Gordon Lofts, near services and amenities, <br />close to parks, the bike path and riverfront. Eugene needs a diverse array of housing downtown for all income levels to <br />attract a wide range of residents who have a stake in our downtown’s health. The Gordon Lofts gets us closer to that <br />goal. It’s an important step forward in the revitalization of our downtown, and I urge the panel to support the <br />application. <br /> <br />Thank you, <br />Andrea Fosmark <br />1583 Gilham Rd. <br />Eugene <br /> <br /> <br />October 17, 2018, Work Session – Item 2
