The Space:
Portland is all about supporting the local economy and artisans, and our custom furnishings and lighting were sourced within blocks of the building; we’re happy to hook you up with our providers. Also enjoy curated artwork from local painters and photographers— these and other works are available for purchase at a special discount through us. If you can’t fit a custom couch or loveseat or lighting fixture with you on the journey home, order a print to remind you of your stay!
The exterior of the building promises to be unlike any of the giant boxes popping up throughout the city: rusted metal siding will blend with painted stucco panels and black, burned Japanese Shou Sugi Bon wood to create a signature look that will be visible to anyone traveling Hawthorne Boulevard. The building sits between the vibrant commercial sector of Hawthorne and leafy side streets full of residential architectural masterpieces from the past 120 years.
The building has the highest grade surfaces and finishes including mini-split heating and cooling, stainless appliances, in-unit washer/dryer, 9-ft ceilings, huge windows, gorgeous cabinetry with glittering quartz countertops, and more.
The Neighborhood:
Commonly known as “Foodie Row,” the Hawthorne/Buckman District puts you within walking distance to a wide variety of top-notch local flavors (no chain restaurants here!) Make new friends over some vegan poutine fries and grilled PB&Js at the Cartopia food cart pod, get messy with some wings right around the corner at Fire on the Mountain, share a pie at Apizza Scholls (consistently voted Portland’s favorite pizza), or opt for a fancy night out at Castagna - all within a 1.5 mile stretch. Portland isn't just for foodies. There’s vibrant indie spirit in Hawthorne, with lots of made-in-Oregon shops and boutiques to explore here in hipster heaven. Or, catch a movie at Bagdad Theater and Pub, a revamped 1920s theater turned view-and-brew venue serving local McMenamins food and microbrews. If bar hopping through neighborhoods isn’t your idea of recreation, head up to Mt. Tabor, a 196-acre city park on top of a dormant volcano vent, where you’ll find miles of hiking trails and incredible panoramic views of the city.
