Weekly Roundup: District Office, J.K. Gill Building, Live Nation at Zidell Yards, and more

Renovation work will soon start at the J.K. Gill Building, which was acquired by Seattle-based developer Urban Renaissance Group after the Multnomah County Health Department left.

The Daily Journal of Commerce looked at how construction crews are navigating challenges* in building the Central Eastside’s District Office.

Renovation work is starting at the J.K. Gill Building at 408 SW 5th Ave, reports the Portland Business Journal. The 1923 building was formerly home to the Multnomah County Health Department, who are now located at the Gladys McCoy Building.

The Design Commission believes that the proposed Live Nation at Zidell Yards has room for improvement, writes the Portland Business Journal.
