About Marshall Wells Lofts
Marshall Wells Lofts occupies a landmark 1910 industrial warehouse designed by the legendary architect Daniel Hudson Burnham who was the visionary behind Chicago's iconic Plan of 1903 and New York's Flatiron Building. Originally built for the Marshall-Wells Hardware Company, this imposing seven-story concrete and heavy timber structure spans an entire city block between NW 14th & 15th Avenues and NW Kearney & Lovejoy Streets in Portland's Pearl District.
Listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1988, the building was thoughtfully converted into 164 residential loft condominiums in 2003 by Robert Ball Companies, with architectural work by Ankrom Moisan Associated Architects. The conversion preserved the building's extraordinary industrial character including soaring ceilings, massive original windows, exposed heavy timber beams, and an unusual interior structure skewed at 45 degrees to the exterior walls.
Today, Marshall Wells Lofts offers one of Portland's most authentic loft-living experiences. Residents enjoy genuine warehouse details that newer “loft-style” buildings can only imitate: original woodwork, expansive floor plans, and an abundance of natural light.
