Portland City Council voted to keep the industrial zoning in Linton industrial. The vote (no unanimous) will block developers from building residential real estate in the industrial zone.
Anonymous Blogger, Laquedem, has an interesting post on the subject on his blog. It discuss the ramification of the vote but also land prices for industrial versus residential zoned land.

Thanks for mentioning my post on Linnton. I’ve long followed the City’s dilemma about industrial land: the City needs to preserve industrial land to protect jobs, but its low value makes it a target for higher-value uses to push industry away.
