Come visit the roof terrace inspired by the art of Japanese gardens, rooted in its milieu. Expansive views to the UW campus and Mount Rainier are framed by an elevated ipe deck and bamboo garden, which transitions to a Pacific Northwest native plant palette. Some of the green features:
• 3500 sf of all native plant green roof absorbs storm water and slows down runoff
• 366 sf of green wall enhances roof top garden
• Over 75% of roof area is vegetated or has high solar reflectance, mitigating heat-island effect
• Irrigation water needs were reduced by 56%
Developer, Landscape Architect and LEED Administrator will be on hand to guide you
through green building and operational highlights.
Located near University District, so there will be social and networking opportunities to follow.
67,500 SF mixed-use
Street-level retail, 3 floors of office space and
