The Mt Whitney Building is a 11,711 sq. ft. adaptive re-use project located in the Central Eastside Industrial District of Portland. The building consists of 4 industrial kitchen spaces with mezzanine levels that accommodate storage, office, or retail. The building has been renovated to meet current seismic standards, as well as the standards for the current Oregon Energy Code compliance. We also upgraded all mechanical, plumbing, electrical and roofing/envelope systems of the building. A new façade facing SE 11th Street was implemented, with enhancements to the ADA access. Additional improvements to the exterior include wood and concrete siding, metal awnings, storefront doors and windows, and landscaping.
The Neighborhood: Central Eastside Industrial District
Located from Hwy I-84 down to SE Powell, along the Willamette River, the CEID is home to most of Portland's craft breweries and distilleries and has a strong presence of specialty-food production sites and creative work-spaces. The revitalization of this area of SE Portland has been an important focus of North Rim's in recent years and is also where our headquarters is located (8th & Morrison).
