HBA Built: Building Better Together.
Introducing the inaugural HBA Home, a special showcase built by Mountainwood Homes with generous contributions from HBA members and a thoughtfully designed floor plan provided by Pacific Lifestyle Homes, on a lot developed by Icon Construction.
More than a beautifully crafted residence, this home represents the strength of the building industry working together. Every contribution of time, talent, materials, and expertise helps support the Home Building Association of Greater Portland’s mission to advance housing and workforce development throughout the region.
The HBA Home is Home #22 at Serres Farms in Oregon City, at the same development as this year’s featured site for the NW Natural Street of Dreams.
