Roslyn Hill
Roslyn Hill, sometimes called "The Queen of Alberta Street," was one of the original developers of what became the Alberta Arts District of Portland, Oregon, starting in the early 1990s.[1][2][3][4]
She, working with business partners, is credited with redeveloping several blocks along Alberta Street, and pioneering the use of urban touches such as public art and corrugated metal siding paired with existing vintage structures.
Hill was honored by the national AARP in 2008 as an "urban-blight fighter."[5]
