It’s our nature to thrive.
One of the key aspects of the Port’s mission is to stimulate economic development within the Camas-Washougal area. One way this is accomplished is by providing local businesses a location to grow and thrive. The Port maintains property throughout the area for various industries, which aid in the continued success of the community.
Community Solar Project
Clark Public Utilities’ newest community solar project offers benefits and participation opportunities to all utility customers. This summer, a 799 kilowatt capacity solar array is being built across the rooftops of five buildings owned by the Port of Camas-Washougal. Community Solar East is expected to begin generating solar energy by January 2024.

“I’m really happy it (Building 20) worked out well because I can’t imagine finding a better place.” —Gus Everson, Owner
Beer lovers, hide no longer. We’ve found your new favorite beer spot, Recluse Brew Works. The name comes from owner Gus Everson’s natural disposition and has roots in Gus’ family’ business Lyman Boat Works.
Gus felt a calling to the brewer’s life in 2016 while living in Chicago. Coming from a job in tech, Gus felt compelled to turn his hobby into a career. After attending the Siebel Institute of Technology, a school known for starting brewing education 150 years ago, Gus and his wife traveled to Portland to visit some family. They were drawn to the beautiful river and the culture of the area as much as they were thrilled to leave Midwest winters behind.
Gus had worked at several different breweries as a Cellar Dweller (or brewer, to us common folk) with a dream of someday opening his own place. And then a Google alert changed everything. Building 20’s proximity to the Gorge and the Columbia made it the perfect spot for the future Recluse Brew Works brewery and taproom.
Recluse Brew Works specializes in lagers. Most of the beer “goes out the back door” to different tap rooms in Washington and Oregon. (Find the list here.) We’d suggest grabbing your friends, checking out the food truck on the Recluse Brew Works website and getting ready for some easy drinking.
Despite being a self-identified introvert, you can find Gus and his taproom manager, Richard Larue pouring beers and talking about what they love in Building 20.
