Wapato Corrections Facility

Wapato Corrections Facility, located at 14355 N Bybee Lake Ct, Portland, OR 97217, was constructed in 2003 to be a corrections facility in Portland, Oregon, United States. The facility has not been used for holding inmates since its completion.[1]

Homeless shelter

In 2016 petitions were circulated to refit the facility to house the homeless[2] and later in 2016 Portland's District 2 Commissioner further supported this effort.[3]
