edirp · #1 Posted **Dec 27, 2005, 4:40 AM**

New mixed-use, 15-story building located in the Pearl District of Downtown Portland. The project includes: high-rise residential, mid-rise lofts, live/work townhouses and retail commercial space at the street level, to create an active pedestrian environment.

that looks like it will be quite a nice building and it looks a lot better in that rendering than the rendering posted at the site

Haven't drove past the site in three weeks and when I went past this weekend they actually have a hole the entire block, a couple stories into the ground. It looks like they finally kicked it into high gear!

new Cronin Block renderings (under construction)

urbanlife · #5 Posted **Jan 18, 2006, 4:30 PM**

it should fit into the Pearl quite nicely. Where is the site exactly for this building?

pdxtraveler · #6 Posted **Jan 18, 2006, 4:33 PM**

It is next to the Streetcar lofts at between 12th and 13th and Northrup and Marshall.

next to the brewery and the Go By Streetcar condo.

okay, that lot. I was wondering what was going there. That should work out well. I like the amount of retail space it will add, should create a little bit more pedestrian traffic in that part of the Pearl.

Besides it is next to the new Safeway sight (though must say I haven't heard much about that lately).

Now we have "GO BY CAB" on the side of the Radio Cab building at NW 16th & Marshall

Portland Architecture has a good writeup on the Croning Block

...here are the renderings he posted

renderings make it look nice enough, better than average Pearl fare. anyone been by the site recently, how far along is the project?

I drove past it today and they looked like they were pouring the floor for P1. So, a couple more weeks and they will be out of the ground.

Starting to emerge from the ground...

The Cronin Block has been named The Wyatt

why are they marketing this project so late? here it is about a year after site work began and only now the project has an official name and website. most buildings like this are already sold out before construction begins.

this whole tower has been put together in an odd way. It took them months to excavate, and than a few months to start the garage. I'd assume they'd just call them the Cronin Condos since news reports have already called them that.

zilfondel · #19 Posted **Jun 6, 2006, 8:01 PM**

Well, because Wyatt Earp stayed there!

Seriously, odd name. Wonder where it came from?

Thirdhand, according to an architect but through my Mom...

"the reason The Wyatt didn't have pilings AND has those water tanks on the street is because they discovered a SPRING underneath the site and had to build it this way....sort of "floating"! Wobble. Wobble, CRASH!!!!! Yikes!"
