The nineteen storey, Class A office space tower has 270,000 square feet (25,000 m2) of leasable space. Rising 263 feet, the building was designed by Robert Frasca of Portland architecture firm Zimmer Gunsul Frasca Partnership. The office building was the first high-rise for the firm and has a red brick exterior. These were Willamina brick incorporated into prefabricated panels, and this was the last instance of this brick being used in a Portland building.

Famous quotes containing the word details:
“There was a time when the average reader read a novel simply for the moral he could get out of it, and however naïve that may have been, it was a good deal less naïve than some of the limited objectives he has now. Today novels are considered to be entirely concerned with the social or economic or psychological forces that they will by necessity exhibit, or with those details of daily life that are for the good novelist only means to some deeper end.”
—Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)
“Then he told the news media
the strange details of his death
and they hammered him up in the marketplace
and sold him and sold him and sold him.
My death the same.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
