CONCEPT DESIGN FOR A NEW EUGENE CITY HALL

CONCEPT DESIGN FOR A NEW EUGENE CITY HALL


On Wednesday, March 5, at 7 PM, in the McNail-Riley Building, the City of Eugene's design team invites you to join in a dialogue about design and sustainability as we develop the concept for a new city hall building at 8th and Pearl. The design team is looking forward to your feedback on a design in progress that incorporates features such as green roofs, bio-swales, night flushing, and solar heating. Designed for a 100-year horizon, a new city hall needs to be durable and adaptable as new technologies develop and the needs of Eugene residents change.
