Took this yesterday by Monte's out on Washington.

I wouldn't put too much stock into reactions on social media, PPH comments, or the Portland subreddit. I don't think I've ever seen a positive reaction to any proposal in those places. That said, I quite like the design and I hope they are able to get it built.

4 acres, very interesting! 👀

It's two different buildings, 89 Elm isn't next to the garage, but the other building is. (60 Elm?)

This lot was recently rezoned to TOD-1, not sure what the height limits would be.

I think so. I'm not sure what they do on Washington Ave but I think they want to consolidate all the administrative stuff to the main site on Veranda.\ In other news, I noticed the recently closed Dunkin Donuts lot at Woodfords corner is for sale...

Martin's Point is starting construction on their addition tomorrow: https://martinspoint.org/Meet-Martins-Point/Featured-and-Recent-News/All-News-Updates/2025-Martins-Point-Campus-Enhancements

Drove past yesterday morning, the pier building was about half demolished.

Oof... those are quite hideous.

Yeah that has to be an old estimate from like 20 years ago, I have to imagine it would be much more than that now.

I like it as well. The first tall building in an area will always stick out a bit, at first. We'll just have to add in some more so it doesn't stick out so much ;) After all, these downtown parcels were re-zoned with increased height limits for a reason!

This looks fantastic, I really like the curved archways on the center segment!

Looks great, a big improvement over the current junkyard, thats for sure!

Yeah, it's pretty bad. Whats with the large parking lot in the middle that isn't even connected to anything? Maybe there will be trails so you can walk to the other parking lots?

We did it, we saved the abandoned industrial lot for another generation.

The owner of the lot next to it, and the next lot, is listed as "Somerset Development LLC" Not sure how long that's been the case.

Yeah, its the whole city, as it should be. Honestly most of the changes are very minor.

No one really goes to the bank anymore. Might as well go have a drink and pretend you're at the bank instead! Sounds like a cool project overall, looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

For comparison, the way that area looks now:
