Welcome to Tigard Eco District

 Welcome to the Tigard Eco District website. This site is designed for the Tigard businesses and local area residents to use as a resource guide. The idea of this page is to engage businesses and shoppers to work together to create a new urban area of interest.

For example, the Alberta district in Portland was a dying and forgotten community. Three years latter with the community, businesses and local government working together, the Alberta district has become the Alberta Arts District. A thriving, growing and economic success story. Tigard could learn from this model.

 There is no reason Old Town Tigard can not come together to change its "old " image and become a thriving sustainable, family destination shopping hub.

Tigard Kids Say: Eco Friendly

As part of Tigard’s application, students who serve on the Tigard Youth Advisory Council submitted essays about what the city offers.

Alexander Carsh, a THS freshman, wrote that Tigard is “eco-friendly, it feels very safe around here, and it has a lot of opportunities for youth.”

He added that as a member of the youth council, “I feel that since we live here, we should have some say about what goes on in our community, and we do.”
