Three years ago, ScanlanKemperBard of Portland paid $24 million for the 7-acre Northwestern Industries glass manufacturing plant in Interbay. (The latter company consolidated operations in Arizona.) The following year, renovations began on the three old buildings now branded as the Commodore Interbay Industry Center. CBRE represents the space, and its Bryan Hester and Andrew Stark recently signed a new tenant, the climbing gym Vertical World. That gym has been a longtime fixture in Interbay, and it isn't moving. Rather, its new 42,337 square feet, with a 15-year lease, will be a satellite operation at 2501 W. Commodore Way; that's but a few steps west from the current gym. Jo Ann Williams of SKB said in a statement, “We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Vertical World to Commodore, especially because this expansion will allow them to provide their specialized youth programs to a greater number of kids in Seattle.” SKB's entire complex spans about 213,066 square feet. The renovation was done by Venture General Contracting and Mildren Design Group, which is based in Oregon.
