HBO takes four floors in Hill7

By JOURNAL STAFF

HBO will lease 112,000 square feet of office space in Touchstone Corp.’s Hill7.

The Seattle Times reported that HBO will lease four of the 11 floors. The 285,000-square-foot tower is under construction at 1821 Boren Ave. HBO now occupies about 25,000 square feet at Metropolitan Park East at 1730 Minor Ave.

“We are expanding our Seattle footprint so we can further tap into the local talent,” HBO said in a statement. “The plan is to grow off of our current 90 employees in the area of technology as well as create additional positions that will support a variety of departments throughout HBO.”

Hill7 will also have a 14-story, 222-room Hilton Garden Inn. Both buildings are expected to open in May.

Principal Real Estate Investors is Touchstone’s partner in the project.

International architecture firm Aedas and local architect Johnson Braund are designing Hill7. Mortenson Construction is the general contractor, and Magnusson Klemencic Associates is structural engineer.

Greg Inglin and Tony Ford of Colliers International are in charge of office leasing.

At 1812 Boren Ave. — across the street from Hill7 — Touchstone is planning another major mixed-use project: Tilt 49, with an 11-story office building and a 36-story residential tower.
