Stearns Portland is renowned for its relatively small city blocks, as well as the large number of odd-shaped properties in the central city core, particularly those situated near the I-5 and I-84 freeways, railroad tracks and other landmarks. The 7 SE Stark project located in the Central Eastside Industrial District is a good example of the latter. Squeezed between the freeway and railroad tracks on the west side and existing development on the east, the property is much narrower on the north side than the south, which led developer Harsch Investment Properties to expand the original scope of work to include four stories of office space atop what was originally intended as an open air parking garage.
