There is no better location in Portland. The Meier & Frank Building spans a full city block across from the northeast corner of Pioneer Courthouse Square, a downtown hub known affectionately as Portland’s “living room”.
Four MAX Light Rail lines intersect right in front of the building, while multiple bus stops and Biketown stations surround it. Portland Streetcar stops are a quick three block walk away. Within a mile are hundreds of restaurants, cafes, local and big name retailers, breweries and Portland’s most popular food truck gatherings. The newly opened Pine Street Market, a bustling food hall with gourmet vendors, is just blocks away.
