Pearl District developer Hoyt Street Properties is pushing forward its proposal for a 20-story condominium tower in Northwest Portland. The firm recently issued a request for design advice.

Plans for the high-rise call for 142 condominiums and above-grade parking. The project is planned for a full block bordered by Northwest 11th and 12th avenues, and Pettygrove and Quimby streets.

Block 20, as the project is known, would have a five-floor podium and a 20-floor tower. Retail space is not envisioned.

Hoyt Street Properties has been a leading developer in the Pearl, partnering with Boora Architects on projects such as Cosmopolitan on the Park, The Encore and The Metropolitan. Only eight Cosmopolitan units remain to be sold, Hoyt Street Properties President Tiffany Schweitzer said.

鈥淚t sold incredibly well, and we would like to keep that momentum going for the next project,鈥� she said. 鈥淭here’s not a lot of new, for-sale product on the market.鈥�

Condominium sales took a hard hit during the recession, but developers have recently begun investing again.

Project backers hope to meet with city officials for design advice sometime this spring.
