“Twin glass spires convention complex on Portland's east side — iconic 260-foot twin towers visible from across the city, dramatic atrium with Pacific Northwest art, and the urban Pearl-Lloyd District context”
About
The Oregon Convention Center's twin glass spires are among the most recognizable architectural landmarks in Portland — 260-foot towers visible from both the east and west sides of the Willamette River. The convention center's main atrium is a soaring glass-and-steel space filled with Pacific Northwest-specific art, including a large Chihuly glass installation and hand-crafted Oregon crafts. The building's Lloyd District location puts it adjacent to the MAX light rail hub, the Moda Center arena, and the Providence Park stadium area. Portland's film production history includes Grimm, Leverage, and numerous independent productions supported by the Oregon Film Office's 20% labor rebate. The twin spires provide an immediate visual identifier — establishing shots with the towers make location unmistakable in a way that generic convention centers cannot.
