The Meier & Frank Delivery Depot, located in northwest Portland, Oregon, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Built for Portland retailing company Meier & Frank, the building was designed by Sutton & Whitney and constructed in 1927.

In 2011–12, the building was renovated for use as the new Portland headquarters building of Danish company Vestas Wind Systems, whose U.S. headquarters had been in Portland since 2002, but at a different location. Gerding Edlen Development Company, of Portland, purchased the building in 2007, and Vestas began leasing it in 2010. The renovations cost $66 million, and the company moved into the building in spring 2012. The company is hoping to receive Platinum LEED certification for the renovated building.
