PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 23, 2022 — Kolitch Romano Dascenzo Gates LLC (“KRDG”), an Oregon-based law firm, has affirmed its commitment to Portland’s downtown community. The law firm will be relocating to a new 11,496 square foot space at the American Bank Building, located at 621 SW Morrison.

The building benefits from a TriMet MAX line rail stop outside the front door, and proximity to Pioneer Place shopping center.

Although downtown Portland has struggled recently due to the COVID-19 pandemic and other issues, we are committed to the area and it’s encouraging to see others do the same.” – James Paul, Executive Vice President, SKB.
