Developers hope to turn Lottes Building into a business hub
10 Jul 2019
A dilapidated building that has stood for nearly 100 years will soon receive a breath of new life.
Portland-based developers Tony Ngo and Mark Chen are restoring the Lottes Building at 1413 Adams Ave. in La Grande, with the goal of turning the empty space into a hub that could potentially house up to six businesses.
The project received a $75,000 infusion of funds from the Urban Renewal Agency at its Call for Projects meeting after earning the highest score of the six projects the URA considered.
