A low-angle view of the historic Chown Pella building in Portland, Oregon, photographed at dusk against a deep blue sky. The multi-story red brick industrial building features a vintage wooden water tower on its roof and a large weathered painted advertisement reading "Pella" in yellow script on a circular dark background. The faded "Chown" name is painted in ghost lettering on the upper brick facade. Several birds are silhouetted against the darkening sky above the roofline.
