Portland, Oregon
150,000 square feet
55 luxury units
Breaking ground November 2006

Situated on the west bank of the Willamette River in downtown Portland, Oregon, Macadam Pointe Residential Towers will consist of 55 luxury condominiums in two mid-rise towers (6 and 8 stories, respectively), totaling 150,000 square feet of living space plus an 18,000 square foot convenience retail facility. As a premier downtown community, Macadam Pointe offers a rare opportunity to live and work in the downtown area without compromising on space or privacy. Averaging just over 1,600 square feet each, and designed by the award-winning and internationally recognized firm of MulvannyG2 Architecture, these condominiums are setting new standards for luxury and spaciousness.

Located on Portland's Willamette River Greenway Trail, Macadam Pointe serves as a portal to the exclusive neighborhood of John's Landing and has the potential of becoming the new southern terminus of downtown Portland's riverfront expansion, including access to a trolley serving commuters and visitors alike. Project features include a moon garden on one rooftop with other unoccupied roofs designed "eco-green," full landscaping with two water features plus oversized decks for individual units. To accomplish one of the development's most important design goals and engage residents with their beautiful surroundings, all parking will be in a secure, underground structure while Macadam Pointe's two towers will be sheathed in clear glass offering maximum natural light within the project's floor-to-ceiling units as well as panoramic views of the Willamette River, Ross Island, Mount Hood and Portland itself.

Overall, Macadam Pointe will make a crisp, contemporary architectural statement that complements its surroundings while adding style and elegance to the unique neighborhood of John's Landing. Along the entire riverfront, the area is converting from heavy industry to residential development with a density that is expected to double the neighborhood's population within a few years. Already, offices and health facilities employing several thousand people have relocated along the river. With Macadam Pointe's close proximity to many of the city's main attractions as well as the Willamette River Greenway Trail, residents will enjoy the best of an urban neighborhood lifestyle in a riverfront setting with all of downtown Portland only minutes away.
