Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox building First & Main is a 17-story, Шаблон:Convert office tower in downtown Portland, Oregon, at First and Main streets. The building was completed in 2010 at a cost of $100 million with Hoffman Construction Company as the general contractor for developer Shorenstein Properties.

History

The land the building occupies was previously a surface parking lot, long considered a potential location for a new Multnomah County Courthouse.[1] In 2005, the property was purchased by EQ Office, which in turn was bought by The Blackstone Group, which sold the property to Shorenstein Properties.[2] Construction began on the $100 million building in March 2007,[3] and the county at that time hoped to have an underground connection between the Justice Center and a proposed new courthouse site next to the Hawthorne Bridge, through what is now the First & Main site.[2] Excavation work began in September 2007 and a construction crane was erected at the site in April 2008.[4] Early estimates had construction finishing in 2011.[5]

First & Main topped-off in February 2009,[6][7] and became the first office tower built in the city since 2000, when the Fox Tower was completed.[8] In February 2010, the federal General Services Administration leased 70 percent of the yet-to-be-completed building to house federal workers during the renovations to the Edith Green – Wendell Wyatt Federal Building.[3] First & Main opened in the middle of 2010,[9] after the structural construction finished in April.[10] The building earned Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) platinum status from the U.S. Green Building Council in 2010 for the core and shell.[11]

Developer Shorenstein Properties sold the building for $129 million in March 2011 to American Assets Trust.[9][12] The building earned Gold LEED certification from the U.S. Green Building Council in 2012 for its sustainability on interior spaces.[13] The owners had originally sought platinum status for the building.[14] The building reached full occupancy in March 2013.[15] CLEAResult leased nearly Шаблон:Convert in 2014 in the building.[16]
