Weekly Roundup: Zidell Yards, 9North, Centennial Mills, and more

Posted on by

Plan view of the planned improvements at the Zidell Slipway, designed by PLACE landscape architects. The conceptual designs were presented to the Design Commission in December, but are now on hold.

The Oregonian reported that the Zidell family have suspended plans for development on the Zidell Yards in South Waterfront. The Portland Tribune reported that “as the scale of the plan had increased, so the city’s willingness to split the cost of infrastructure had waned.” Portland Architecture wrote about the film ‘Built by Zidell’, which covers the family’s legacy on the site from 1928 to 2017, when the company launched its last barge.

The Portland Business Journal took a look at Simple’s Central Eastside campus, which now includes Clay Creative and 120 Clay.

According to the Portland Mercury Good Coffee Company has opened its third location in Slabtown’s Leland James Building.

The Portland Business Journal published photos of the 9North office building, originally known as Station Place Lot 5, currently taking shape in the Pearl.

The Daily Journal of Commerce reported on the Lynd Company’s plans for Centennial Mills. While still in the early stages of development, the site is being masterplanned by SERA Architects who say the site could “support three to four buildings on it.”

Focus: 25 Office Buildings Planned for Portland

Pearl West by Hacker / GBD Architects, the first new office building to break ground in the Central City after the recession

Pearl West by Hacker / GBD Architects, the first new office building to break ground in the Central City after the recession

While Portland has long been considered a desirable place to live, it has traditionally lagged its suburbs—Washington County particulary—in income and job growth. Following the recession this appears to have changed. Employers increasingly desire a location in central Portland. As commercial vacancy rates have dropped and rental rates gone up there has been a sudden influx of new office proposals.

The vast majority of these are speculative projects, where the developer starts work on the project without a specific tenant in mind. Only three of the buildings—the Daimler Trucks North America HQ, the Multnomah County Health Department HQ and the Seven Corners Community Collaborative—are planned for a specific end user.

Click through to see our roundup of the major projects going on right now, arranged in no specific order. Where a significant portion of the building will be used for functions other than office, the area of the office floors alone has been given. Note that the area of any building may not be directly comparable to another due to differences in methods for how floor area is calculated.

120 SE Clay

120 SE Clay by developer Killian Pacific and architects Ankrom Moisan / Potestio Studio

Developer Killian Pacific announced this week that they are planning a second new office building in the Central Eastside, at 120 SE Clay. The project will be located one block to the west of their under construction Clay Creative project.

Portland Architecture published a Thanksgiving state of the city essay, looking at both the things to be grateful for and the things to be anxious about.

Breakside Brewing will open its third location at the LL Hawkins and Slabtown Marketplace, reported the Willamette Week. The brewpub will join New Seasons, Consolidated Community Credit Union and Besaw’s restaurant.

Regal Cinemas have filed a lawsuit over the planned development at 1510 NE Multnomah, which would replace the surface parking at the Regal Lloyd Center 10 & IMAX. As reported by The Oregonian “lawsuit contends that the parking at the site is ‘a material term’ of Eastgate’s lease and ‘critically necessary’ to the use of the property.”
