The redevelopment of the old Centennial Mills site in the Pearl District could include a retail and entertainment center, a public market and riverfront amphitheater or art galleries and housing, according to proposals from three developers released this week.
Among the other elements in the proposals are a boutique hotel, an orchard, a garden and greenhouse, a parking garage, office space and bicycle facilities.
The nearly five-acre site, which is bordered by the Willamette River and Northwest Naito Parkway, formerly housed a flour mill and consists of 12 buildings constructed between 1910 and 1940. The redevelopment is intended to draw visitors from throughout the metro area with green space, access to the river and a sense of the city's history.
The public will have several chances to look at the proposals, online and in person, in the coming weeks.
The proposals will be showcased at the Pacific Northwest College of Art tonight at 1241 N.W. Johnson St. during First Thursday festivities.
An open house is scheduled at the college for Feb. 20, when the developers will offer presentations and answer questions from the public.
The proposals are also available at www.centennialmills.org.
After hearing from the public and a selection committee, the PDC is expected to choose a developer by the end of March.
