DESCRIPTION

The Umatilla Business Center and associated improvements will take up the greater park of a city block, with the exception of a warehouse on the southwest corner that will not be impacted by this project. The full Business Center including building, site and street improvements form a major component of the Umatilla Civic Center Master Plan. The project will include re-purposing an old Post Office, purchased by the city, and the construction of an addition to the Post Office. A two-story addition will be built immediately north of and adjoining the old Post Office forming an 11,500 sf mixed use facility fronting 6th Street. 

Why it's needed-The goal of the Business Center is to energize the downtown and create a true city center composed of civic facilities, office & supporting functions, street & urban open space improvements and cultural event offering. The Business Center will offer incubator space designed to be leased for 1-3 years by emerging small businesses at below-market value. 

Timeline- Anticipated Completion date Spring 2024.
