A weekly list of highlights from commercial land use review activity in Portland by the Bureau of Development Services in the prior week.
Type 2 procedure (historic resource review) pending
Address: 439 N.W. 22nd Ave.
Applicant: Cynthia Casas of Equanimity Wellness
Owners: Casas and Shari Goldsand
The proposal calls for transforming a building that decades ago held a tavern/restaurant into one viable for an acupuncture business. The building currently is used as storage space for residents at 435 N.W. 22nd Ave. Proposed changes would not enlarge the structure. A rooftop deck (for residents) would be created, and a sign would be installed. No new impervious area is proposed to handle stormwater. This is a contributing resource in the Alphabet Historic District.
Early assistance application Address: 621 N.W. Couch St.
Applicant: Francis Dardis of Ankrom Moisan Architects
Owner: Macdonald Center
A new elevator tower is proposed for the building’s courtyard side (not visible from streets) with floor plan infill. The work would include installation of rooftop mechanical equipment, replacement of the roof, and reconfiguration of the entry vestibule.

Applicant: Paula Diamond of Holy Trinity 31st Glisan Townhome Development
Owner: Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral of Oregon

Applicant: Jim Toporek of Studio 3 Architecture
Owner: Vikash Narain

Stormwater would be managed on site. The development would span over two separate lots.
