Living at The Cameron places residents right above the city's pulse, PSU, Safeway, endless dining options, the dog park, and the Park Blocks all within a short walk, yet the moment you close the door the bustle dissolves, yielding to a stillness that the soundproof windows make possible, leaving the city hum reduced to a distant murmur without ever leaving the urban core. The neighbors are kind and respectful, and the management is responsive and excellent, the kind of balance that makes… convenience and sanctuary possible without requiring a choice between them.

The Cameron is a terrific place to live in downtown Portland. The apartments have an efficient layout with lots of storage, the building is kept clean, and the staff are professional and friendly. The location is ideal, close to the streetcar, PSU, Safeway, and the Park Blocks.

Moving into The Cameron is one of the best decisions I’ve made in my adult life. The floor plans are versatile, management is helpful, and the building is well taken care of. The only downside is that there is no parking garage—but the other amenities like in-unit laundry and trash rooms on every floor easily make up for that in my experience. PSU’s PS3 structure a few blocks away provides ample parking for a similar price as paying for a space anyways.

Living at The Cameron is great

Pros-- the staff is friendly and helpful but not overbearing. The welcome packet is actually welcoming and helpful. The location is great-- close to a grocery store, a block away from the streetcar, a super short walk to the train or a bus, close to the park blocks and the farmer's market. Security is about as good as it can get without a dedicated guard stationed in the lobby, which is nice. My apartment (1/1) is spacious, has ample closet space and kitchen storage. The nook for a desk area has… been clutch in a work from home situation. Bathroom is fairly large and I love that it's just a shower, not a shower/tub set up. The apartment comes with a washer/dryer and also has air conditioning (although not central air) although I didn't use it much this summer (I moved in in July). As for heat, I still haven't turned it on, but the main living area and the bedroom have their own thermostats, and you can program the one in the living room. Neighbors are all nice so far and there are a lot of dogs in the building! There is a gym and also a courtyard with a grill and seating. CONS-- the gym is minimalist. You can get in a workout but might have to be creative if you're really into lifting. Not the biggest fan of the treadmills and elliptical (they just seem kind of flimsy, but they function just fine-- there's also a bike that's great for a spin workout). The only other drawback as far as I've experienced is just that you can hear people walking around (I'm on the top floor) and bass really carries when people are listening to music, but overall everyone seems respectful of each other. If you own a car, there's no dedicated parking, so keep that in mind if you're moving in with a vehicle, but there's a bike share station right outside the doors and scooters are usually parked somewhere on the block.
