Reach out to us and let our practical, approachable, and resourceful team help yours.
Our Story
Housing market crashes and Alpha Community Development shuts its doors.
Jim Lange, Stacy Connery, Mike Killion, Jodie Inman, Rod Rowan and Patrick Espinosa decide to take a leap and create Pacific Community Design
Working out of Jim’s house
The new owners start establishing PCD within the development community.
PCD picks up where Alpha left off and continues development in the award-winning Villebois Village.
PCD Staff expands to 17 with full planning, civil engineering, and surveying services…and the house is getting a little crowded.
PCD moves to Main Street in old-town Tigard.
Together we worked with the building owner to redevelop an old cold storage building into the amazing workplace we enjoy today….right next door to Cooper Mountain Ale Works.
Work expands into the North Bethany and North Plains areas.
Staff increases to 25 and Kerry Lankford joins the team to help establish a Landscape Architecture Division. Finally fulfilling our dream of creating the smallest park in the history of Main Street.
PCD starts work in the River Terrace neighborhood in Tigard.
The office space expands for growth. Erik Graham and Mike Killion establish a UAV Services Division…. we think it’s really cool we can say we have several licensed pilots on our staff. We also designed an amazing skatepark!
2020 has brought numerous challenges to the table for all of us.
We meet each challenge by placing people first, banding together, and being resourceful and resilient. We continue to monitor and implement Oregon’s guidelines for Covid-19 safety. We support equity and human rights for people of all walks of life. We support our communities recovering from the Labor Day fires. We support first responders serving our communities during these events. We seek to leverage the influence that we have, to contribute to positive long-term outcomes.
We are happy to be back in the office working together on a wide variety of projects around the region!

“I can’t express enough how valuable my relationship with PCD and its principals has been over the last two decades. They have been instrumental in the design, engineering and entitlements of two of America’s Best Master Planned communities, Orenco Station and Villebois. They have served not only as a consultant, but at times as a direct extension of the Costa Pacific Communities’ staff saving me countless dollars over the years. They have provided us with innovative solutions with rainwater, transportation design and community layout as well as representing us with distinction in the jurisdictions in which we develop.”
