BACKGROUND:
The City of Oregon City in conjunction with the Clackamas County Arts Alliance, Main Street Oregon City and Metro have recently received a National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) grant to artistically illuminate the City's historic municipal elevator. In preparation for this art installation, Metro, in consultation with the City of Oregon City and the Main Street Oregon City, has hired DAO Architecture to address various historical and architectural issues associated with preparing the facility for this art installation. These issues include: historically appropriate lighting improvements, signage, proposed methods for cleaning and prepping the facility for painting, a historically consistent color palette and estimated project cost. This presentation will outline the recommended alternative.
