Our Oregon Zoo Cascade Terrace & Wildlife Pavilion project finished on schedule, on time, and with minimal disruptions to the Zoo, the animals, and the public.

Featuring a view of Kallik the polar bear at the Wildlife Pavilion and mountain goats from the Cascade Terrace, this project expands the Zoo’s entryway and event spaces while fitting seamlessly into the guest experience.
 
As we recognize Construction Inclusion Week, we’re also celebrating the partnerships behind this project. Fortis was founded as an Oregon emerging small business, and that experience continues to shape how we build today. Through intentional outreach and opportunities for minority-owned, women-owned, and emerging small businesses, we’re committed to making our projects a vehicle for community growth and economic opportunity. On this project, women accounted for 33.32% of apprentice hours worked, reflecting our commitment to expanding opportunities in the construction industry. Thank you to the many partners whose collaboration and expertise helped make this project a success.

As we kick off Construction Inclusion Week, we’re proud to spotlight the team helping advance inclusion across our projects every day.

Our Inclusive Partnerships team works alongside employees, trade partners, and community organizations to help create welcoming, respectful, and hate-free job sites. Through initiatives like our Inclusion Impact Plan and Respectful Workplace Program, we continue building a culture where everyone feels safe, supported, and valued.

Their work ensures that inclusion is more than an initiative, it’s part of how we build every day.
