Montgomery Park

Portland, OR

The transformational master plan leverages creative program, branding, architecture and planning to create an iconic identity of place while successfully integrating complex civic and private programmatic needs with a thoughtful mix of preservation, re-interpretation and new construction.
 
Leveraging sensitive adaptive reuse strategies, the District seeks to celebrate the site’s history & iconic architecture by celebrating the historic Montgomery Park building and American Can Complex. Breathing life back into the urban fabric with programmed and active uses, new programs and a refreshed identity caters to the existing workers and surrounding community needs.
 
The human-scaled urban fabric and circulation encourage interaction, sense of discovery, and provide experiential moments of surprise and delight that draw people through the district. A variety of open spaces of multiple scales engage the surrounding neighborhoods and create a functional 18 hour a day destination that appeals to a broad range of users.
