    Gresham : Rockwood renewal feasibility study (2001)
    (City of Gresham (Or.), 2001-11) Gresham (Or.); Barney & Worth, Inc.; E.D. Hovee & Company; Tashman Johnson LLC
    The study finds that urban renewal can help Rockwood–West Gresham become a more competitive and desirable location for new commercial business, industry and housing by providing the means to: support development of vacant, underutilized and difficult to develop industrial sites; revitalize Rockwood’s core area into a viable regional town center; implement many of the goals and objectives of the several past planning efforts that have focused on Rockwood–West Gresham; promote the rehabilitation of existing housing and the development of new housing.
