Private Group Asks
To Build ER Center
Portland BP) An organi
- zation of private investors
said today it will propose to
the Portland city council that
it be permitted to build, with
private funds, an exposition
center at Delta park to seat
50,000 persons and to be
ready by next spring in time
for the Oregon Centennial.
Put Portland First, Inc.,
said that if the city would
agree to the proposal, the in
vestors would ask in return:
A 50-year franchise and lease
on the Delta park site at $1
per year: and an agreement
that if the Pacific Interna
tional should deed its prop
erty to the city, then the city
should, in turn, deed the PI
property to the corporation.
Although the city has al
ready begun site clearing for
its own exposition center be
tween the " Broadway and
Steel bridges, the corporation
suggested that it buy the site
on a dollar-for-dollar basis
and that it would build multi
ple housing there.
