Block 216 (Ritz-Carlton), Portland, Oregon
Standing at 460 ft tall, Block 216 is a milestone 35-story tower boasting 158,000 sf of office space and includes the Pacific Northwest’s first Ritz Carlton with 138 Ritz Carlton branded residences and 11 stories of five-star hotel space. Amenities span 4 floors and feature a Ritz Carlton restaurant on the 20th floor along with a pool and jacuzzi on the 19th floor. The building is now tied with Park Avenue West as Portland’s fourth tallest building.Â
This is the largest construction project since the US Bank tower in 1983 and sits on what was once an undeveloped block of downtown Portland.  Â
The design itself features a variety of condenser water-based mechanical systems such as water-source VRF, water-to-water heat pumps, DOAS units, vertical self-contained units, water-source heat pumps, and energy recovery ventilators. Â
The tower also incorporates an eco-friendly design including eco-roofs from Level 8 down to Level 3 with planters and stormwater management systems. These eco-roofs visually tie the building to O’Bryant Square Park and are positioned on the western half of the block allowing a reduced shadow cast on the Square. Â
This Design/build project is expected to be completed in April 2023.

University of Washington Parrington Hall
Located at University of Washington’s Seattle campus, the 1902 historic Parrington Hall has seen multiple renovations throughout the years. A key challenge to this project was avoiding the City of Seattle’s substantial alteration requirements. Through the Progressive Design-Build process, the team collaborated with all stakeholders and found solutions to avoid pushing the project into a substantial alteration. Navigating this threshold was critical, since required substantial alteration upgrades would have exhausted budget resources without allowing for required program upgrades. Progressive Design-Build delivery provided the flexibility to complete this $19 million renovation.

University of Washington Hans Rosling Center for Population Health
The Hans Rosling Center for Population Health is at the heart of the University of Washington’s 25-year vision to improve population health on a local and global scale. The Design-Build team’s mission was to create a high-quality, high-performance facility for interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation, in a short amount of time, on a fixed grant budget. The team came on board for site selection and quickly completed programming, design, permitting and construction of the 300,000 SF facility in only three years, while coming in under the grant budget by 2.5%. Surplus contingency was released back into the project budget and $4.5 million was saved throughout the project. This likely could not have been achieved with any other delivery method other than Progressive Design-Build.
