Community Engagement & Historic Preservation
Louis Bloch Park: Alive at 75, Clark Public Utilities
Clark Public Utilities in southwest Washington delivers reliable, at-cost electricity and water services to homes and businesses across Clark County. But keeping the lights on and the water running is only part of what the utility is known for. Through a wide range of community programs and partnerships, Clark PUD invests in making Clark County an even better place to live.
This is the story of one of those community partnerships—and its lasting impact on local baseball players and the community that cheers them on.
History Transformed
John Russell is responsible for building or remodeling some of Portland, Oregon’s most iconic downtown office buildings. But his philanthropic legacy to the city might just be the number of historic buildings he has lovingly renovated and restored. John’s most recent “labor of love” is the restoration of the Hallock & McMillan Building, Portland’s first and oldest commercial brick and cast-iron building. “History Transformed” is the story of how John and his team restored the Hallock & McMillan to its 1857 glory, and why this restoration represents an important chapter in Portland’s history.
