TACOMA, WA—State Farm Insurance is considering changes to its operations in the Tacoma area, including looking at the downtown 12-story building that has been mostly vacant since 2010.

State Farm, Pierce County’s seventh-largest employer, put out a space request for up to 600,000 square feet of Class A office space that could hold up to 2,400 employees, says the News Tribune in Tacoma.  State Farm’s current Dupont operation, with 1,000 employees, wouldn’t be affected by the expansion, the report added.
