The Conco Companies is providing a full range of concrete services on a 12-story, 145-foot tall mixed-use building in Portland, OR.  The Modera Glisan will offer 291 residential units on the upper floors and retail and commercial space at ground level that will face all four adjacent streets. In addition, the Modera Glisan will have an underground parking garage with an estimated 223 parking spots as well as long-term parking for 445 bicycles.  Materials for the exterior will include granite colored brick, a metal panel in two colors, an aluminum storefront, and glass balcony railings.

The project is being developed by the Mill Creek Resident Trust Company and the G.C. is MCRT PNW Construction, LLC.  The architect is SERA Design and Architecture, Inc. and KPFF is the structural engineer.

Conco’s duties will include concrete pumping, reinforcement, formwork, finishing, shotcrete, and formwork.  As the job requires an aggressive schedule, we will need to use multiple placing booms.

In addition to the Modera Glisan, Conco has just started another high-rise project directly across the street called 14^th & Glisan that is being developed by the Holland Partner Group.  We are extremely pleased to have secured two such high profile projects in the area as we just officially opened our Portland office in April of this year.  Also, this will be our first turn-key project with a new client.

The project site encompasses three-quarters of the block of NW Glisan St., 14th Ave, Hoyt St. and 15th.  The L-shaped Modera Glisan will wrap around the historic Fire Station #3, which will remain on the site and be extensively renovated including seismic upgrades.  Along Hoyt St, the building will be the full 12-stories high but drop to 10 stories along 14^th to blend in with the nearby Historic District.  The high-rise will also offer an exterior terrace on top of the 10^th story that includes a pool, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, and hammocks.  At the 12 floor, there will be a common room as well and another terrace.
