February 09 2021 Tigard is refining its vision for the regional center, a site that includes parts of Beaverton and Washington County As Tigard works to refine its vision for how the Washington Square Regional Center will look in the future, several things are clear: High-rise housing isn't in as much demand as it used to be, retail needs are changing with the economy, and while car dealerships are still going strong, the city may press them to downscale their sprawling footprints. Those were some of the comments made as part of an update to the Washington Square Regional Center Update Project, a multi-year look at ways to refine the vision of an 827-acre site that includes not only the indoor shopping mall, which is in Tigard, but the surrounding area, including parts of Beaverton and unincorporated Washington County.
