Crumbling Infrastructure while they build PUDs
- 10/18/2017
If you remember the beautiful, quality town of Silverton, you can save that memory and not come see what Silverton has become today. The City allowed three story high density apartments to be build right next to the train tracks at the entrance to the City, then another three story, high density low income housing project bookended on the other end of town. Currently, a high density PUD is proposed on James Street and the Planning Commission has approved it for 56 crackerbox houses on a small lot surrounded by Farm Land. Pioneer Square phase Four is 76 lots, other various approved projects add another 112 units. The foxes are watching the hen house here. Traffic is routinely backed up to Oregon Gardens and Silverplace Apartments. You can forget shopping downtown as it is dirty, faded and neglected with empty storefronts and aggressive panhandlers.

Smalltown Living at its Best
- 11/30/2006
I grew up in Salem just 20 minutes from Silverton and recently, as a Realtor, I have helped several clients relocate there. Silverton is a wonderful town full of character and charm. It is currently seeing a lot of growth, and most of the new homes going in are beautiful custom homes in well-planned neighborhoods. It is attracting many recent retirees and also many people relocating from California. That said, it also has some of the best schools in the area, so families are also being drawn in. There are a few rougher areas of town, but you'll love window shopping historic downtown, strolling along Silver Creek in the park, having the assurance of Silverton Hospital, and taking it a bit slower in one of Oregon's greatest small
