Facts
- One of Portland's most admired sculptures, Hilda Morris's bronze Ring of Time, graces the entryway on the west side of the building.
- City's first building to place its parking garage below street level.
- The original plans did not include sidewalks on Main and Madison.
- The building features a 50-foot weather beacon on atop of the roof; white indicates falling temperatures, red indicates warming temperatures, green indicates steady temperatures, and blinking means it is raining or it is going to rain.
- Each level is column-free, as the building floors are held up by the elevator core and an outer frame.
- The weather beacon is updated 3 times each day.
