One Main Place is a privately owned commercial office building in Downtown Portland, in the U.S. state of Oregon. Located at the west end of the Hawthorne Bridge, the 20-story skyscraper is 270 feet (82 m) tall. Completed in 1982, it is the fifteenth tallest building in Portland, and the sixteenth largest by square-foot. Designed in the modern style by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, it is a concrete and glass tower.

History

The structure was designed by architectural firm Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and built by Hoffman Construction Company, with completion coming in 1982.[1] One Main Place was acquired by the Equitable Life Assurance Society from Marathon Realty U.S. for $35 million in 1995.[2][3] The pension fund for Los Angeles' police and fire departments bought the office tower in December 1998 for $44.5 million, after having owned 10 percent of the building since the 1995 sale.[1][2] RREEF Realty Investments (part of Deutsche Bank) purchased the building in 2006 for $69.3 million, and then sold it in January 2010 to KBS REIT II for a reported $57 million.[4] RREEF had attempted to sell the office tower in 2009, but halted efforts in October after bids were lower than anticipated.[1][5] The deal on the building was anticipated to close in April, but was completed early in February.[4][6] KBS sold the building in 2014[7] to New York Life for $86.3 million.[8]

The World Trade Center is directly north and east, while First & Main lies adjacent to the south.
