(Portland, OR) -- A new affordable housing complex will be dedicated Thursday in Portland's Overlook neighborhood. The Dr. Darrell Millner Building is named for the former department chair of Black Studies at Portland State University and local expert on the history of Black Americans in the West. The project is part of the Alberta Alive initiative to celebrate and strengthen Portland's historically Black North and Northeast neighborhoods. People with historical ties to the area will be given preference as the 63 units are rented.
