WE LIVE FOR MAGIC

We live for the lights, the music, the food, the learning, the inspiration, and the togetherness. We live for positive change and transformative experiences that blaze a path toward endless possibilities. The awesome potential of every event keeps us on our toes and, sometimes, knee-deep in caffeine. But the magic of pulling it all off? Totally worth it.

WE GET IT DONE

Last minute request? Done. Idea about how to do something better? Done. Guest who wants something we’ve never heard of—now, if possible? Done. And done. YES is the answer. Determination, creativity and teamwork are how we deliver on it.

Decades in the making, the Convention Center hotel finally takes shape (Photos)

Aug. 23, 2018, press

"For years, the lot at the corner of Northeast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and Northeast Holladay Street sat vacant but full of promise — promise that someday, a huge hotel would rise from the gravel to accommodate tens of thousands of visitors to the adjacent Oregon Convention Center every year.

"Though three decades passed before all the stars aligned on the project, they did at last in 2017, when the Hyatt Regency Portland at the Oregon Convention Center finally broke ground.

"Now, about a year later, the hotel is well on its way up. Crews from Mortenson have been working steadily on the building since August 2017 and are, according to Metro, presently on track to finish the hotel on time and on budget by late 2019."
