Lewis transformed two underutilized buildings in Portland’s West End into a new, open-air pedestrian alley connecting the two buildings and providing a passageway from West Burnside to Stark Street. This one-of-a-kind urban retail experience creates indoor and outdoor spaces for eating, drinking and shopping. The AIA award winning space houses a collection of shops and restaurants that create a fresh, authentic retail experience for merchants and their customers.
The project was the recipient of the 2013 AIA/Portland Design Awards – Mayor’s Award for Design Excellence; 2013 AIA/Portland Design Awards – Mayor’s Award for Design Excellence; and 2013 AIA/Portland Design Awards 2nd Place People’s Choice.
