Tomorrow’s Ridgefield, Today.
At the intersection of community and nature is an opportunity to transform 27+ acres resting along the banks of Lake River into a thriving mixed-use development where people can live, work, and play.
The Port of Ridgefield is looking for development partners who are ready to help them realize their vision of creating a place where economic, community, and environmental benefits can come to life along a scenic waterfront.
Within the Heart of Economic & Community Growth
Ridgefield is Washington’s fastest-growing city year after year. Located just 20 miles north of the Columbia River and PDX airport, and along Interstate 5, the West Coast’s major travel and trade corridor, it is well positioned to capitalize on national business and residential migration trends. It is also in a region known for its quality workforce and employment opportunities, which drive economic diversification and bring opportunity and growth to Ridgefield.
Positioned for Success
With 27+ flat, buildable acres of land zoned for mixed-use development and $90+ million already invested in converting the site from former industrial use to a place where future development can take place—the Ridgefield Waterfront is ready to be transformed. The waterfront is situated a quarter-mile from historic Downtown Ridgefield and is connected via a new rail overpass, creating a safe, direct link between downtown and the Waterfront. This project is one that is championed by Port and City leaders who are committed to supporting development and advancing funding opportunities.
Attractive Destination and Thriving Community
Ridgefield attracts residents and tourists with its small-town character, natural assets, water recreation opportunities, shopping, quaint business district and regional employment center. The higher than average household incomes and housing prices both reflect the desirability and economic viability of this growing city. Ridgefield is also home to the National Wildlife Refuge, a regional destination drawing over 150,000 visitors each year and is the stunning visual backdrop to Ridgefield’s Downtown and Waterfront
