“This building has a role to play. It acts as ambassador and host to warmly welcome and introduce new guests to Portland specifically, and Oregon more broadly to the unique and special identities embodied here,” said Trace Jacques, vice president and design principal based in Minneapolis with ESG Architects, at the Design Commission meeting. “We were asked to tell a story about Portland and we’ve done that. We were asked to design Portland’s front porch and we’ve done that as well.”
