Wow, that development is still in the works? I figured it died off. Also why does the building seek to keep getting more bland each time? I mean, I know why cause that seems to be Bora's thing, but still, its a unique building, have a little bit of creativity and act like architects.

Thanks for the update, I was just wondering about this building the other day.

Interesting - reminds me of an old plan for such a venue by works partnership

If I didn't do this correctly, it is for a 3-story music venue on the se water ave.

Interesting… does this mean no more ODOT Blocks (Workshop Blocks).

Interesting choice of building to build there, but I guess that kind of venue won't have to worry about noise complains in that location.

Very cool. Music promoters in Denver built an awesome venue in the ,up & coming, RINO District that can change size by moving the grandstand in and out. I wonder if this will be a similar venue. A good addition for sure.

Is there a long term plan for the southwest corner lot at that intersection?

Developer Seeks to Build Music Venue at Site of Recently Displaced Homeless Village on Prosper Portland Land
30 homeless BIPOC Portlanders were displaced from the village last year because of plans for development.



The Central Eastside site that recently held a BIPOC village for homeless Portlanders could soon become a 3,000-capacity indoor music venue developed on land owned by the city’s economic development agency, Prosper Portland.

In publicly available documents, Beam Development describes the plan as a “major event entertainment” facility in a three-story, 59,000-square-foot building. That’s twice the capacity of the Roseland Theater, and almost the exact same capacity as the Keller Auditorium.

Two senior executives of Live Nation, the massive entertainment company that operates worldwide, were both listed on the city’s documents as parties involved in venue discussions.

On April 5, Hacker Architects submitted a pre-application with the city’s Bureau of Development Services for the concert hall, a step that was completed as of Tuesday. That means that while the plans are still preliminary, all of the involved bureaus needed to approve the site are aware of the plans. Prosper Portland tells WW that Beam Development, the group that has been identified as the likely developer of the three adjacent Prosper-owned lots, including the BIPOC lot, is seeking to build the venue.

Lloyd Center imploded. Zidell got cold feet after failing to get a massive government subsidy. I would hardly say that they don't know what they are doing. More like let's give Live Nation some credit for not bailing on Portland.

I have to say, I actually like this design trend. For buildings this size, it makes for an appealing infill. Also, I am impressed with all that St Francis has done with their property.
