Located in the iconic former Statesman Journal building, 280 Church St NE offers unmatched proximity to Oregon’s Capitol Mall and the state's legislative and administrative core. This prime address places your business steps away from key government agencies, the Oregon State Capitol, and major employers such as Salem Health, Willamette University, and the City of Salem. With convenient access to downtown amenities, public transportation, and ample parking nearby, this location presents an ideal setting for professional services, non-profits, or any organization seeking a prominent and connected presence in Salem’s most influential district.The Statesman Building is a strategic asset in downtown Salem. New ownership is remodeling it to provide upwards of 20,000 SF of office and organizational space at some of the most affordable rents in the central business district. The longtime home to the area's newspaper operations, the property was acquired in 2024 by Store IT, a regional self-storage operator who plans to occupy the lower level and bring high-ceiling, light and bright office space to the first floor. Early designs show the ability to design suite sizes from 989 up to 19,430 SF. Inquire with the listing agents on how The Statesman could be the perfect fit for your company in late 2025.
