Congress Center, Office building in Portland, United States.
The Congress Center features reflective dark glass exterior walls with a hexagonal shape and Spanish pink granite foundation spanning 23 floors.
The structure, completed in 1980 by Skidmore Owings Merrill architects, stands on the former location of Congress Hotel from 1912 to 1977.
The building mirrors neighboring structures in its glass surfaces, creating a visual connection with 1000 Broadway, Portland Building, and Multnomah County Courthouse.
The center received Gold Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification in 2012 for implementing environmental sustainability measures.
Original terracotta arches from the previous Congress Hotel were preserved and integrated into the entrance of a lower-level restaurant.
