Portland Oregon held a worldwide competition to design a building to house city government offices in the early 1980's. The design competition winner was Michael Graves, a NY City renowned architect who came up with the Portland Building, one of the earliest examples of post-modern design.
On the back side of the building rests the 2nd largest copper statue in the U.S., after the Statue of Liberty, the 35 foot Portlandia, the new symbol of Portand.
