PORTLAND | Park Avenue West | 515 FT / 157 M | 33 FLOORS
Park Avenue West (PAW)
This 33 story tower in downtown Portland is being developed by Tom Moyer's TMT Development. Moyer spearheaded Portland's newest office tower the Fox Tower, which was completed in 2001. It will by Portland's third tallest tower at 525 feet including the spire. The 474,000 square foot tower, which contains retail on floors the first three floors, office space on the lower half, and 74 housing units on the upper half, is expected to begin construction in march 2008 after demolition on the block takes place. There will be 320 underground parking spaces in five underground levels. The garage will be connected to the six floors of underground parking under Portland's newest park, Park Block 5, and to the underground portion of Moyer's Fox Tower. TVA architects will be designing the building. The crown and spire of the building is expected to be lit at night, possibly with LEDs.
^^^ I hope that its those low, crappy looking things in the middle, not the one to the right, that brick one has character and class and is not the kind of building that should be demolished!
I'm liking this design though the spire looks a little tacked on.
