Portland Plans to take ownership of ICE Facility

Ownership of the ICE Facility in Portland
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility at 4310 S.W. Macadam Avenue in Portland’s South Waterfront district is privately owned, not by the federal government. ICE leases the space for its operations, including short-term detention and processing, under a long-term agreement.
Key Details on Ownership
• Owner: Developer Stuart Lindquist owns the building through his entity, 4310 Building LLC. The lease with ICE, managed via the General Services Administration (GSA), runs through 2033 and is worth approximately $2.45 million annually.
• Background: The property was adapted for ICE use in 2011 with a conditional land use approval from the City of Portland, which includes restrictions like no overnight detentions (limited to 12 hours). Lindquist has been involved in disputes with the city over alleged violations of these terms.
• Recent Context: In September 2025, the city issued a land use violation notice to Lindquist for ICE holding detainees too long (at least 25 instances since October 2024). Lindquist contested this in October, calling it “retaliatory” amid protests and federal-local tensions. The city is exploring options like assuming the lease to evict ICE, but no changes have occurred yet.

Ice should build a newer, bigger one next to some progressive hood.

not that I am for it, but what would stop the fed government from buying out the building or taking it under imminent domain?

Portland wants a pissing match with the Feds over privately leased property... something hints at this not working out well for the city.

How can the city dictate federal policy?

ICE should eminent domain it immediately.

Nope. As close as they can get to the wealthiest part of Portland.

Progressive hoods usually are, like uptown NOLA.

Buy it from the owner.

$2.45 mil annual lease, something tells me this owner isn't going to be happy with the city meddling either.

I hope ICE moves its operations to a military base well removed from public view and crazed protesters.

This. ED'ing it for $20M or so would be a nice paycheck for the owner while also completely screwing any legal gymnastics the city was trying to set up.

Its a very isolated part of the city with the exception of new shitlib urban apartment complexes in the immediate vicinity

Id be asking a billion dollars as this is the only reasonable solution.

Just move out and cut off federal funding.

Simple fix for the detainment time, enroll them quickly and on buses to Alligator Alcatraz, then off to El Salvador

So many incredible ways for this to end up significantly worse for Portland and detainees. Keep doing what you do Portland losers
