Hyatt Centric is located in the heart of Portland’s hip West End district immediately north of the United Way Building. Mortenson’s long-term support of United Way opened the door to acquiring United Way’s surplus property for the development, design and construction of this new lifestyle brand hotel. The 15-story hotel includes 220 guestrooms, meeting space, and a new destination restaurant/bar operated by a local Portland chef. The lobby entryway serves as a launchpad for the hotel guests and the community, creating a lively hub that is reflective of Portland with multi-media art displays.

Mortenson led the development of the project to include land acquisition, entitlements, design and construction.
