"Using our expertise, we were able to build an infrastructure that is one of the most automated and energy efficient offices in the city," says Jones in a way intended to convey a fact more than a boast. He is also proud of the fact that the property has immediate access to both Interstate 5 and Highway 99, as well as being a mere two minutes north of Boeing Field.

"We're also building a large corporate training facility and lounge that will be available for tenants," he adds. The center will hold 40-50 people and will be complete with a full kitchen and wet bar--and the bathrooms are decked with showers.

"It's a beautiful building," says the property's leasing agent, Michael George with the Seattle office of Colliers International. "They have turned the building itself into a showroom with touches like the light fixtures in the lobby that are far from what's typical in the market." Asking rates says George will run about $17.50 per sf to $19 per sf.

"Like Pioneer Square and the area around Safeco Field, Georgetown is starting to see some redevelopment opportunities," he says. "We're marketing this building as an alternative to downtown and hoping to set a trend," he adds.

Pacific Georgetown Center's architect was Pete Schroeder & Assoc., and the interior was designed by Desiree Eden of Interior Development. Both are Seattle companies.
