The Portland ICE facility is the common name of a building used by United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Portland, Oregon. It is also known as the Lindquist Building.[1]
History
The General Services Administration has leased space in the building since 2011. The site was the focal point of a week-long demonstration in 2018, and remains a focal point for ongoing 2025–2026 protests following changes to immigration enforcement practices during Donald Trump's second presidency.[2][3] In 2025, protesters began holding daily protests at the building; most of these were focused around performance art and peaceful gatherings, though some resulted in clashes with federal agents.[3][4]
The building closed for 22 days during the summer of 2025.[5] Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem visited the facility in October 2025.[6][7]
The city has threatened to evict ICE from the building over permit violations.[8][9][10]
