Ace Hotel

BEYOND THE STATS

• The Ace Hotel is an adaptive reuse of the United Artists Building on Broadway in Downtown’s Historic Core,, and includes a 13-story tower and historic theater, built in 1927 by Hollywood icons Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, and Charlie Chaplin.
• The former office building, with its iconic filigreed tower, features a ground floor restaurant and bar, a rooftop lounge, and a pool, all styled with Ace’s signature hip aesthetic. The theater, one of Broadway’s many historic movie palaces with an elaborate Spanish Gothic interior in near-pristine original condition, is being used as a venue to host concerts for hotel guests and the greater downtown community.
• Along with the Portland Ace team, KFA worked on the project design with GREC Architects of Chicago, Commune interior design, and the project’s developer, Greenfield Partners.

Tacos Mexico

• Tacos Mexico is the quintessential taco stand (truly—standing only) at the edge of a downtown parking lot. The food is good, it’s cheap, and don’t forget the defining red sauce in the condiments area.
