Oberlander worked in this project from 1983-1989 with architect Arthur Erickson. Oberlander and Erickson received the National Landscape Award for the project landscape design.

A terraced façade featuring a hanging garden with trees and roses was design as a way of extending the John Marshall Park up to the roof of the building. The project series contains sketches and working drawings for the landscaping, including planting plans, irrigation plans, planters details, sections and planters irrigation plans, and architectural plans provided for reference use. It also contains photographs of the building and the courtyard landscaping.
