One Pacific Square, also known as the Northwest Natural Gas Building, is a high-rise building located at 220 Northwest 2nd Avenue in Portland, Oregon, United States.[1] Construction was completed in 1983.[2] According to Bart King's An Architectural Guidebook to Portland, it has been nicknamed the "R2D2 Building".[3]

In 2017, NW Natural announced plans to move out when the company's lease expires in 2020,[4][5] after using the building as its headquarters for 30 years.[6]
