It will interest our patrons
to know some of the details of
the construction of our new
building an achievement that
all Portland should be inter
ested in.
For instance: There are 203
elevator door openings, which
is more than any other three
buildings in Portland combined.
If all these elevator fronts were
set in a straight line they would
reach from Third to Tenth
streets, and if the stair enclos
ures were added the line would
reach from Third to Sixteenth
street. The elevator doors are
all hung on ball-bearing hang
ers, and the doors equipped with
automatic door locks, making
accidents practically impossible.
There are 34 flights of stairs,
which, if placed one upon the
other, would reach 920 feet, or
almost as high as Council Crest.
The contractors who supplied
the cold rolled steel mouldings
tell us that they used 200,000
feet, or 37 miles. It is the same
steel moulding as used in the
Singer building in New York
and other splendid structures,
and is considered the best fire
proof and ornamental construction.
