Skylab's Weave office building, proposed for Southwest 12th Avenue and West Burnside, at the intersection of Stark, faces the challenge of getting built in a tough economy. Not to mention designing a building for a 5,000-square-foot lot.

But the 10-story building is expected to begin construction in August, according to Skylab. The 50,000-square-foot building will be finished by December 2010.

The contractor is York and Curtis, the structural engineer is Catena Engineering and the civil engineer is KPFF.

It's called the Weave to reflect "a Web of influences on an urban fabric," according to a description provided by Skylab. "In the same way a textile depends not solely on the form of the fibers but also on the structure of the weave, the design premise for the Weave Building begins with the philosophy of community and how living, working and the built environment co-exist."
