Portland’s Lloyd Center to be Demolished for an 18-Block Redevelopment

Portland’s Lloyd Center will be demolished this winter as developers plan an 18-block redevelopment in the Lloyd District that adds housing (affordable and market-rate), retail storefronts, transit-connected streets, and six acres of publicly accessible open space. A permanent ice rink is not included. Tenants such as Floating World Comics and Star Tropics Pinball Museum will be displaced with at least three months’ notice, and supporters of the Save Lloyd campaign are rallying residents ahead of a Feb. 5 design commission hearing to try to preserve the mall’s legacy.
