This project focuses on the re-use of one of Eugene’s most historic buildings, the E.W.E.B. Steam Plant. This building was constructed in 1931, is located in close proximity to the University of Oregon, Downtown Eugene, Autzen Stadium, and sits on the banks of the Willamette River. I re-designed this building as a Boutique Hotel that would stand as a landmark for all of Eugene. This involved testing how feasible a hotel would be in relation to the site, local businesses, tourism, and the limitations of the existing building. By preserving the envelope of the existing building and transforming the interior, I was able to create a hotel with an industrial feel. My design also makes use of the original boiler and one of the large turbines as feature pieces. The Boiler Hotel connects the riverfront with a mixed-use ground floor that includes an atrium, restaurant, rentable office spaces, commercial spaces, and hotel amenities. The large existing windows give hotel guests clear views to the river and maintain the historic character of the building.
