In the Business Journal, Wendy Culverwell writes about the demolition of the former Powell's Technical Books to make way for ArtHouse, PNCA's new student residence that's being developed by the Powell Family. Slated to open for fall 2013's incoming class, ArtHouse will be a "150-student residence that with street-level retail and 60 studio, two and three bedroom units on five upper floors."
Culverwell notes, "ArtHouse is the first physical sign of PNCA's plan to develop a campus centered on the North Park Blocks in Old Town/Chinatown. It will relocated from multiple buildings in the Pearl District to the former U.S. Post Office, 511 N.W. Broadway, after securing the building from the U.S. General Services Administration."
