Alpine Avenue Street Improvement Project

ABOUT THIS PROJECT

The Alpine Avenue Improvement Project is one of the thirteen projects identified in the McMinnville Urban Renewal Plan intended to incentivize revitalization and redevelopment in the NE Gateway District, transforming an old industrial area in the city center into a vibrant, mixed use commercial and residential community.  This project will improve NE Alpine Avenue in the City’s Northeast Gateway District. Improvements include street surfacing, pedestrian facilities, bike lanes, utility upgrades and attractive landscaping to encourage economic vitality and community vibrancy. The project is comprised of two phases: 

Phase 1 = NE 7th Avenue to NE 11th Avenue; and

Phase 2 = NE 11th Avenue to NE 14th Avenue. 

Phase 1 was completed in 2017-2018, and Phase 2 is scheduled for construction no sooner than 2026, depending upon funding availability.
