We love historic preservation! 💘🏛️❤️

The Witherspoon & Sons building, built in the 1890s, is a testament to Portland’s industrial boom and architectural heritage. This historic renovation preserved the building’s character while addressing seismic safety, fire codes, and accessibility. Originally constructed with unreinforced brick and timber, the project required a comprehensive retrofit to ensure structural integrity. The historic storefront was restored, and upper floors were revitalized for flexible use, including retail, co-working, and event space. Key preservation efforts included exposing original brick walls, installing reclaimed wood flooring, and integrating existing structural elements.
