Why now: development momentum in Oregon City's Park Place area
ICON Development is far along in the entitlement process for Oregon City's Park Place area, and its nearby Park Place II, a 215-lot subdivision on roughly 59.5 acres, is advancing through the city's planning process. Here is why that momentum matters for buyers of 16868 S Livesay Rd.
The development-momentum picture around 16868 S Livesay Rd comes straight from the public record: ICON Development's long-running engagement in Oregon City's Park Place area, the Park Place II subdivision now in front of the city's Planning Commission, preliminary utility planning that is already under way, and the opportunity the adjacent contiguous acreage represents. Park Place II does not involve these subject parcels; it is development in close proximity to them and a demonstration of Oregon City's long-range plan for the Park Place Concept in motion.

ICON's engagement in the Park Place area
The Park Place area has been advancing through Oregon City's development pipeline for years, and ICON Development has led much of that work. ICON has been engaged in the entitlement process for this neighborhood and is far along in it. For an investor, that engagement shows up in the record, not in promises: concept planning, subdivision filings, and utility work that already carry the city's attention.
Park Place II is moving through the city's planning process
ICON's nearby Park Place II, a 215-lot subdivision planned on roughly 59.5 acres, is actively progressing through the city's planning process. It most recently appeared as a public hearing item on the Oregon City Planning Commission's September 14, 2026 agenda. The filed subdivision plan and the meeting agenda are both available from this site's document vault.
Utility planning is already under way
Preliminary utility planning for the area is already under way. The ICON Development preliminary utilities plan is among the filed site documents, and sanitary sewer is currently part of the city's Sanitary Master Plan, which gives a development buyer a concrete starting point for the services conversation instead of a blank page.
What the adjacent acres add
The adjacent property in this listing's orbit is also for sale, held by a different seller, and combined with the two parcels at Livesay Rd it points to 25+ contiguous acres with potential alternate access. A developer coming in alongside entitlement this far along inherits real momentum: a planning paper trail, a preliminary utility direction, and a hearing history. The adjacent contiguous acreage amplifies that, because the larger the assembled site, the more of the neighborhood's next filing a single buyer can lead.
The honest disclaimers
ICON's Park Place II is a separate project by a different owner and is not part of this listing. This site makes the public planning documents available for convenience only; the City of Oregon City is the official source of the public record. Buyers should verify all facts, statuses, and timelines directly with the public record. Nothing in this note is an approval, and no timeline cited here is a promise.
