Clearing an office in Pearl District and Old Town/Chinatown
The Pearl District sits north of Burnside Street and west of the Broadway Bridge, running from NW Broadway to I-405 and north toward the Fremont Bridge, with Old Town/Chinatown between it and the river. Creative agencies, architecture firms, software companies, apparel and outdoor brands, and nonprofits are the core tenants.
Much of the office space is in converted brick warehouses with heavy timber floors, such as the Brewery Blocks and the buildings around the North Park Blocks, plus newer mid-rise mixed-use buildings. Older buildings may have raised loading platforms, slow freight elevators or no dock at all, while newer buildings route freight through garages with tight clearances.
District snapshot: Direct office vacancy in the Pearl District/Chinatown submarket was 29.9% in Q3 2026, according to Kidder Mathews. Source

Planning a Pearl District and Old Town/Chinatown move-out
What experienced facilities teams account for in this district before the first desk comes apart.
- Reserve curb space through PBOT's Temporary Street Use permitting, which covers commercial moves, and apply five to seven business days ahead.
- Keep trucks clear of the Portland Streetcar tracks on NW 10th and 11th Avenues and NW Lovejoy and Northrup Streets when staging.
- Measure old warehouse freight elevators and loading platforms before the move, since many cannot take long panels or crated furniture.
- Check garage clearances in newer mixed-use buildings, where underground parking often rules out a box truck.
- Route all computers, monitors and TVs to recycling, because Oregon law has barred them from the garbage and landfills since January 2010.
