200 Occidental

Adjacent to Occidental Park in Seattle's historic Pioneer Square neighborhood, 200 Occidental is a new, eight-story office building.

The 214,000-square-foot building houses Weyerhaeuser's corporate headquarters, with 158,000 square feet of office space, ground-floor retail and below-grade parking.

It was designed to honor the historic neighborhood and park, while offering a modern, energy-efficient building. It recently received LEED platinum certification, with a large rooftop solar array, green roof and operable windows for ventilation.

A high-performance glass curtain wall provides floor-to-ceiling windows with sun shading and views of Occidental Park. The structure's compact core means fewer columns, allowing office floors to have 13-foot ceilings.

Above the tree canopy, rooftop meeting rooms, gathering spaces and gardens offer views of the city and Elliott Bay.
