Firms Present Centennial Mills Plans Wednesday Evening

Wednesday, Feb. 20 the Portland Development Commission (PDC) will host a Centennial Mills project open house. The open house will be held at the Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA), 1241 NW Johnson, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. In addition to providing the public another opportunity to review and comment on the proposals, the open house will feature presentations by the three development firms selected to participate in the Centennial Mills redevelopment Request for Proposal (RFP) process. Following each presentation, firm representatives will take questions from the public.

The three nationally known development firms selected to participate in the RFP process are:

• Lab Holding, LLC from Costa Mesa, CA
• The Cordish Company from Baltimore, MD
• Nitze-Stagen & Company from Seattle, WA

Based on a review of the proposals and comments received from the public, a selection committee made up of city officials and public stakeholders will make a recommendation for a preferred proposal and development team to PDC Executive Director Bruce Warner. Executive Director Warner will then present this information to the PDC Board of Commissioners in late March.

In addition to attending the open house, the public can review and comment on the proposals by visiting the Centennial Mills project website: http://www.centennialmills.org/opportunity/. E-mail comments can be submitted directly to PDC staff via the website.
