The Press Blocks is a three-building, mixed-use development planned for Portland, Oregon's Goose Hollow neighborhood, in the United States. The $20 million purchase by Urban Renaissance Group and Security Properties closed in February 2017.[1][2] Prior to construction of the new buildings, multiple buildings will be demolished, including one that formerly housed The Oregonian's printing press. The newspaper's parent company, Advance Publications, sold the property.[2]

In March 2017, the Portland Design Commission rejected plans for the development, which had to be revised and resubmitted for approval.[3]
