It will be built by mid 2019.
Note: I'm currently dealing with a family medical emergency and am unable to work normal hours. You'll see guest articles and a lower volume of stories here (and on our social media accounts) and no coverage of breaking news until I return to Portland. Thanks for your understanding and support!
