The Oregon Sustainability Center was a proposed high-rise office building that would have been located near Portland State University in Downtown Portland, Oregon.[1][2] The building was meant to be a "living building" that showcased green building designs and sustainability.[3][4][5] The entire project was expected to cost $120 million.[6] Portland mayor Sam Adams decided to end the planning on the project in October 2012.[7]
