Associated Oregon Industries
Moves Into New Building
Oregon’s only statewide em­
ployer organization -- Asso­
ciated Oregon Industries --has
relocated
its headquarters
offices in Salem.
Announcement was made this
week by Pres. Henry T. Swi-
gert that AOI staff has com­
pleted a long-anticipated move
from Portland to a new one-
story office building at 1149
Court St. N.E., Salem.
The move, according to Swi-
gert, climaxes more than four
years of study, property ac­
quisition andconstruction. AOI,
he said, is dedicated to the or­
derly economic development of
our state and its staff devotes
the largest part of its time
working with the State Legis­
lature and various agencies of
state government.
"It was inevitable,’’ he said,
"that AOI headquarters one day
had to be as close to the seat
of state government as pos­
sible."

story headquarters building is

a block and-a-half west. Its
exterior is of Corten weathering

The building contains 6,250
square feet of ground-level
space for offices, meeting and
conference facilities. It also
has a 500 square-foot base­
ment storage area and more than
