Architect Cass Gilbert worked on the American Renaissance-style Spalding building while also working on the Woolworth Building in New York City. Completed in 1911, it was considered a skyscraper.[5]

The 103,824-square-foot (9,645.6 m2) building[6] contains 12 above-ground floors, and its construction mimics a classical column: A base, a shaft, and a capital.[7]

In spring 2016, Squarespace, a website-design company based in New York City, moved its Portland office to the Spalding Building, in newly renovated space used by around 150 employees.[8]
