Oregon Sustainability Center

Having been away from Portland for almost a year now, I was hoping there would be progress on this project by now. Sounds like funding from city hall and the state aren't really an option until the campus and surrounding area are a designated urban renewal area--which could be a few years out. I understand the budget constraints faced in the public sector, but this project still seems like a great idea. Do those of you in PDX think that there's any chance we see this in the next 10 years?

PSU has hired a Sustainability Officer but the project is on hold for now. It will likely be revitalized when sufficient funds become available. They first scaled back the design and then found the funds to be lacking even then. This project is considered important enough to pursue and will very likely be built within the next four years.
