The building sits at the entrance to the southeast corner of the Central Eastside Industrial District along two main arterials, Hawthorne Boulevard and 12th Avenue. Transit and bike paths make the building easily accessible from the variety of neighborhoods nearby. The CEID experienced significant transformation in the last decade as many of Portland's most historic industrial properties were transformed or replaced by higher-density employment and housing projects. The 1120 Madison building is truly unique in its opportunity to own or occupy a full block at the gateway to one of Portland's most desirable commercial districts.
