Overlook Tree Preservation Industrial Building

A Portland industrial warehouse on the edge of Forest Park makes good use of space, accommodating storage, workshop, office and showroom space needs in a 4,000 square foot building. Stormwater will be treated through a permeable paving system, bioswales, rainwater harvesting and an ecoroof around the perimeter of the roof. An energy-producing solar PV laminate system will replace traditional roofing materials on the non-ecoroof portion of the roof. A tilt up-concrete panel system made in part of recycled steel and fly ash will create a thermally massive building envelope, and salvaged fixtures and doors will be used inside the building. The building has no sewer hookup and will instead include two composting toilets. The project will seek LEED® certification.
