Two businesses have signed leases for office space in the 35-story Block 216 mixed-use tower, BPM Real Estate Group announced on Thursday.

Davis Wright Tremaine LLP, a national law firm with a century-long presence in Portland, has signed on as the anchor tenant by agreeing to terms for slightly more than 19,100 square feet on the seventh floor. San Francisco-based private equity firm Banneker Partners has leased 4,545 square feet of space on the fourth floor.

Davis Wright Tremaine was advised by JLL‘s Portland office and by Century Pacific in Seattle. Banneker Partners was represented by Kevin Joshi of Kidder Matthews. JLL is the leasing agent for the office space in Block 216.

The building offers office space on floors three through seven. Floors five and six can be configured as contiguous space for companies seeking up to 67,256 square feet. The fourth floor is a multi-tenant floor for smaller footprint needs.

The nearly complete Block 216, now the fourth-tallest building in Portland, will open the city’s first five-star hotel, The Ritz-Carlton, in August. It features 251 guest rooms and world-class dining, a spa, a pool, a ballroom, meeting rooms and fitness facilities.

Available for sale are 132 Ritz-Carlton luxury homes on floors 21 through 35. Amenities include an exclusive owner’s lounge on the eighth floor, an infinity pool and fitness facility on the 19th floor, and secured underground parking with access to valet service.

All ground-floor retail space in the building has been leased. A food hall called The Flock, set to open in the fall, will feature Queen Mama’s Kitchen, Prime Tap House, Kim Jong Grillin, Artly Coffee, and others. The other retail space will be occupied by Packouz Jewelers.
