Imagine a verdant, 6-mile loop for pedestrians and bicycles connecting the Pearl District, West End, Cultural District, PSU, South of Market, South Waterfront, the Central Eastside, Lloyd District, and Rose Quarter.
Now imagine the bolder, taller, more urban Portland rising along it.
Last year’s Design Week Portland featured an international design competition for a strategy to bring the Green Loop to life. This year, the winner—Untitled Studio, a collective from Portland, New York, and Seattle—are filling DWP’s Headquarters with an interactive exhibit of their work so far.
Join journalist and Green Loop competition director, Randy Gragg, as he hosts a fast-paced opening evening of short presentations by the civic leaders building a bold new Portland destined to rise along this city-shaping work of infrastructure.
