EOP Seeks Design Approval for 800,000-SF Tower

BELLEVUE, WA-The 450-foot tall, 32-story structure would be the largest office building in Downtown Bellevue by some 320,000 sf. Wright Runstad would develop the project for Equity Office Properties Trust, which already controls more than 50% of the Downtown space.

BELLEVUE, WA-Equity Office Properties Trust went official this week with plans for City Center II, the largest office building ever proposed in Downtown Bellevue. Designs for the would-be 32-story, 779,000-sf tower were submitted for design review this week by Seattle-based Wright Runstad & Co.

Associate planner Ken Thiem tells GlobeSt.com the building would sport a stone fascia and rise 450 feet above the street on what is now a parking lot at the southwest corner of Northeast Sixth Avenue and 110th Street Northeast. It would include five levels of underground parking providing 1,450 stalls.

Wright Runstad submitted perspectives of the building in black and white that show “the northeasterly corner of the building as an arc created by series of stepped vertical wall areas,” says Thiem. “There is also a plaza shown that doesn’t currently exist between the proposed tower and City Center I that would have a raised lawn area, a sculpture and a landscape feature.”
