O’Bryant Square Garage Demolition

PBOT

Portland, OR

2022 to 2025

Project Scope

O’Bryant Square was opened in 1973 but has remained fenced off since 2018 due to structural issues with the underground parking garage. The city has planned to convert the parking garage into a vibrant new park dedicated to the late LGBTQ icon and drag queen Darcelle XV. Plans include an open plaza, performance stage with shade sail canopies and a “walk of fame” to honor LGBTQ heroes.
