I agree - interesting that they're looking to do another ground-up build, rather than taking over an existing thing. Right now Wyndham is about the only major I can think of building new resorts.

Wasn't the last major build in a historical district "La Belle Maison"? ... I personally feel is a great resort & has valet parking only.

This could be a really nice place except under the NEW idea of point structure would cost be a bloody large pile of points to stay there. :ignore:

I stand corrected. :)

Still, with Wyndham opening Avon and now potentially this, they must think the economy is going to continue up.

Worldmark and VI
They have tried to bring in a Portland resort for Worldmark since 2008. The first try was cancelled due to the recession and then it seemed to be revived in 2012 and then nothing for the last year and a half. This may be that same project; the same architect firm is involved and the description of the building fits: http://serapdx.com/projects/world-mark-by-wyndham/

However, the location is different so they may be looking for a suitable spot.

Yes this is great news..

Lori Ford from Wyndham Communications is confirming they are definitely interested in Portland but said Wyndham won't give any more details.

It's crazy Worldmark has such a strong presence in the Pacific Northwest but doesn't have a resort in Portland.
