The proposed Oregon Square Office Development is part of a larger eco-district focused on sustainability, centered with district solutions around energy, water, waste, and transportation. This development is the second phase of the Hassalo on Eighth development. While two existing buildings on Oregon Square have been or are being renovated, the plan is for the two south blocks to be developed as office buildings. The proposed East Building will be six levels, and the proposed West Building will be five levels; additional floors can be added to both buildings if needed. The buildings sit atop a continuous underground parking facility that spans beneath both blocks and can take advantage of the available parking in the Hassalo on Eighth Development to the north. The floor plates being proposed are large with 11-foot high finished ceilings and glass line. The concrete structural system provides long span support reducing columns. The combination of large floor plates and the high floor-to-floor height allows deep daylighting solutions while also allowing greater space planning flexibility. Future stair connections can be provided through proposed block-outs to allow both spatial and physical connectivity between floors. Accommodations are made to both float ceiling clouds and provide mechanical and fire protection distribution within the bays of the one-way structural frame. The top level of the East Block is set back to provide a continuously elevated terrace. Other floors are provided with outdoor space as well. Both buildings propose a roof deck amenity. This development would expand on the LEED Platinum Neighborhood Development and continue to leverage the surrounding retail, housing, and the multi-modal transportation opportunities already on site. Construction is underway for the new Earl Blumenauer Bridge which will provide bike and pedestrian crossing over Sullivan’s Gulch.
