A must see! Amidst the hustle & bustle, just east of the Burnside Bridge, stands the San Marco. This early 20th-century bricker offers upgraded one-bedroom and studio apartments with refinished hardwood floors, period architectural design qualities, generously high ceilings, and french doors separating the living and sleeping quarters. The unique character and style of these apartments are emphasized by the natural light coming through the windows. The San Marco has a secured common access entry, onsite laundry facilities, indoor bicycle storage area large enough to store items like paddle boards and kayaks, and options for an extra storage unit.
The San Marco Apartments center between the Kerns and Buckman neighborhoods. Just two miles from the city center in downtown, this neighborhood allows easy access to popular Portland destinations. With a walk score of 97, bike score of 99, and transit score of 81, you will have all that you need within just minutes! Are you a lover of food? Who isn't! San Marco is surrounded by many delicious restaurants and bars! Just to name a few, Bar Casa Vale, Matador, Rontoms, Matta, Canard, and Thai Champa. Looking for something sweeter?
