Apartments to replace police association building
A 5,000-square-foot, 58-year-old structure at the corner of Northwest Overton Street and 19th Avenue is due to be replaced with a six-story apartment complex.
Which came first: the apartment or the retail complex?
The 22-acre Con-way site in Northwest Portland has development potential for as many as 4 million square feet of built space, but many different ideas exist about how to start the project.
Durkheimer House for sale
The Durkheimer House, at 2415 N.W. Lovejoy St., is a 7,800-square-foot, Colonial Revival home built in 1899. The seven-bedroom, four-bathroom house is for sale for $1.395 million. Though the property is zoned residential, the space would work for other uses, as long as the developer could circumvent city zoning.
William Temple House for sale
The William Temple House, at 2023 N.W. Hoyt St., looks something like Hogwarts or the House on Haunted Hill. Despite its prominence, it has been for sale for four years. The asking price for the 20,000-square-foot property is $2.7 million.
Film Exchange Building for lease
The Film Exchange Building, at 935 N.W. 19th Ave., was built in 1931 as a regional distribution center for six major movie studios, where film was repaired and movies were screened for local theater managers. The property is being redeveloped and has space for lease.
The Plymouth
The Plymouth, at 1230 N.W. 21st Ave., is one of the ubiquitous, turn-of-the-century apartment complexes in the area. But it's the only one that is for sale, and it isn't lacking its own, unique charm.
Construction moving along on NW 23rd
Northwest 23rd Avenue will reopen to two-way traffic between Everett and Glisan streets this week as construction moves farther south. The avenue will close between Burnside and Everett Street starting Wednesday.
Recession creates opportunities in Nob Hill
The recession has created a now-or-never situation for retailers looking to enter Northwest Portland鈥檚 Nob Hill neighborhood. As some businesses leave the coveted retail district, each leaves a 鈥渇antastic opportunity鈥 in its wake, Colliers International broker Ryan Pennington said.
