The Conco Companies is providing concrete services on the Alta Burnside project in downtown Portland, Oregon. During construction, services include concrete pumping, reinforcement, formwork, and shotcrete.

Located at 1638 W Burnside St, this 154,480 sq foot mixed-use building is being constructed by Pavilion Construction under the direction of Wood Partners. Alta Burnside includes 6,000 square feet of retail on the first floor, 138 residential units, and an underground parking garage. Add the wraparound terrace to its predominantly glass and brick walls, and you will see that this is an impressive building. Best of all, it is in a popular Portland neighborhood near the Providence Park Stadium.

Construction began in July 2018, and presented a unique challenge. The footprint of Alta Burnside was originally occupied by other buildings. Architect Ankrom Moisan had the unique challenge of designing a building to fit into this tight space. Conco, in turn, had to work very carefully with the excavation contractor to ensure scheduling constraints were met.

Conco worked with KPFF Consulting Engineers to select the correct concrete chemistry and specifications during the planning period. As commercial concrete contractors servicing Portland & Southern Washington, Conco is proud to have participated in this urban renewal project.

Conco is one of the foremost suppliers of concrete pumping services for the Western U.S. We got our start in 1959 in the Bay Area by offering clients the best value on a broad range of concrete services and products. Since that time, we have taken a leading role as top concrete contractors in the Western region. We have regional offices serving California, Oregon, Nevada, and Washington.

Designed by GBD Architects, Block 216 is an area in downtown that was previously only used for parking and street vendors. The structure is a 35-story building with multiple purposes, including a hotel, business space, and residential condo space. It also includes an underground parking garage. There are 4 floors of amenities, including a terrace, restaurant, gym, and bar which will be available to Block 216 residents.

Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) has given the project a Gold rating, and the building will be incorporated into the Green Loop of Portland’s Central City. The Green Loop is an effort to connect the areas within Central City through increased mobility by foot, bike, or other mobility devices. The Green Loop requires a 12-foot space behind the property line for buildings near parks.

Block 216 is the largest project in the Portland market within the last ten years. The structure is expected to bring revenue for local businesses in Portland.

Conco started providing concrete services in February of 2020. Services include formwork, reinforcement, pumping, and shotcrete. The project’s main scope is expected to be complete by March 2022.

Conco’s mission is to be the best supplier of concrete services in the Western United States and to bring experience, expertise, and quality to each project.

Boren Tower - The Conco Companies - Seattle Concrete Contractors 4 (1)

Boren Avenue is known for the cultural and pedestrian experience that it brings to Seattle residents and visitors. It is home to Cornish College’s famed Raisbeck Hall on Boren, among other notable historic sites. The challenge for Holland Residential and The Conco Companies, was to design and build a structure that reflects Seattle’s modern skyline without jarring the existing buildings. The result was a design that everyone can agree on.

Holland Residential’s new project, Boren Tower, is underway after receiving unanimous approval of their latest design. The tower replaces three surface-level parking lots totaling 21,600 square feet on the corner of Lenora Street and Boren Avenue. Designed by the Seattle architectural firm, Weber Thompson, the 44-story mixed-use tower will accommodate residential, arts, and office spaces at 2019 Boren Avenue. It also offers below-grade parking for over 360 vehicles.

Residential amenities include both outdoor and indoor space on level 5, atop the tower’s roof, and on the podium level. The south terrace provides a pool deck, cooking/hospitality area, and a full, wrap-around bar. Although floor plans and per-unit square footage are still in the works, upper floors will contain 400 residential units, with four penthouses on level 42 and 43. The entire project will total 643,000 square feet.

The Conco Companies poured a mat slab in January 2020, consisting of a monolithic base mat pour of 5,920cy. with an additional upper mat slab pour of 730cy. The crew utilized three pumps to pour the concrete. Cadman supplied the readymix, averaging 348 yards per hour for the pour, with a maximum output of 463cy per hour. Conco Reinforcing supplied over 1.5 million pounds of rebar for the mat, installed by RPM.

The Conco Companies is partnering with Holland Residential throughout the planning and execution phases of the project due to our solid working relationship, reliable services, and competitive bids. This is our fourth tower project with Holland. The scope of the work will include concrete pumping, finishing, reinforcement, formwork, trucking, and shotcrete. The project is expected to be completed by August 2021.

The Conco Companies provides comprehensive concrete services throughout the Western United States. We provide expertise and unsurpassed quality to each project regardless of its size or scope.

The-Moxy-Hotel-Portland-commercial-concrete-contractors-The-Conco-Companies-3.jpg

The Marriott Hotel is slated to open a new franchise, the Moxy Hotel in Portland, in the Pearl District in summer of 2020. Construction began in June 2019 on the new project and promises to bring a unique, contemporary take on the hotel experience to the lively neighborhood in downtown Portland. Several notable groups have come together to develop and execute the project, including development company Graves Hospitality, DLR Group Architecture, and Portland commercial concrete contractors The Conco Companies.

A Franchise for the Young and Young-at-Heart

As a new franchise from the well-known Marriott Hotel, the Moxy Hotel is looking to attract a new sector of hotel guests. The stylish interiors, contemporary designs, and vibrant urban locations are being offered at an affordable price for leisure travelers and business professionals alike. With the vision of immersing guests in the cityscape around them while providing smart, modern accommodations, the Moxy Hotel boasts several unique features. The 197 guest rooms will offer views of the city and Mt. Hood through floor-to-ceiling glass walls in their corridors, while the hotel’s public spaces will offer a range of sought-after amenities. The Moxy Hotel promises an open and engaging ground floor space that is designed to draw guests out into the surrounding city. The space will feature large operable glass walls, a full-service bar and lounge area, game rooms, and food carts. Additionally, the exterior is designed with deep canopies extending over the sidewalk for food cart goers to enjoy the offerings no matter the weather.

A Challenging Site for The Moxy Hotel

This exciting project is not only unique in its vision, but also in its dimensions. Situated on less than a quarter of a block, the 12-story hotel has a dainty building footprint. Benjamin Graves, the president and CEO of Graves Hospitality said of the project, “We’re creating an amazing addition to this neighborhood by defying the unthinkable and building 71,232 square feet of ground-up construction on an incredibly compact 7,500 square foot site.” In order to overcome this challenge of construction, the Conco Companies was brought on to provide an array of concrete services.
