Milwaukie City Hall is the local government headquarters for the city of Milwaukie, Oregon, a suburb of Portland. It replaced the old City Hall in 2023. [1] [2]
The building was originally built in 2003 to house the headquarters of Advantis Credit Union, originally Electra Credit Union. [2] In 2019, the building was sold to the City of Milwaukie in order to be used as a new city hall, to replace the aging older building that had become too small. Advantis built a new headquarters in nearby Oregon City. [3] The building was remodeled and was topped off with a sign of February 28, 2023. The old City Hall and Johnson Creek Facility were closed on September 13 and the new building officially opened to the public on September 15. [4] The official dedication was held on October 6. [2]
On November 8, 2023, the building was temporarily evacuated due to a bomb threat that was called in at around 2pm. 32 year old Harris Orians was later arrested for the threat and charged with first-degree disorderly conduct and obstructing governmental administration. [5]
In December 2022, it was announced that the old City Hall will be remodeled and turned into a commercial building featuring a brewery, restaurant, bakery, and community art and office space. [6] [7]
