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.
Located at One southwest Columbia Street, it is across the street from Tom McCall Waterfront Park and is bounded by Columbia, Jefferson, First, and Naito Parkway on the southern end of downtown. The building includes a 200 space underground parking structure and a rooftop terrace. Around the base of the tower are landscaped plazas and a gazebo. Internal numbering at the skyscraper omits the thirteenth floor.

Famous quotes containing the word details:
“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“Different persons growing up in the same language are like different bushes trimmed and trained to take the shape of identical elephants. The anatomical details of twigs and branches will fulfill the elephantine form differently from bush to bush, but the overall outward results are alike.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“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)
