Law firm signs at USBC

What some still call the U.S. Bank Centre — or Center, take your pick — is generally now labeled as the USBC building, at 1420 Fifth Ave. Perform Properties, a Blackstone company, owns the recently renovated tower, with CBRE as its broker. Now the USBC is welcoming a new tenant, the heavyweight international law firm Arnold & Porter, which has its headquarters in Washington, D.C. It opened an interim branch here in July, then moved this month into the USBC. In the new space, it has 25 attorneys and staff. Pallavi Mehta Wahi leads the Seattle office for A&P, and said in a statement, “Our location not only anchors us in the heart of Seattle's business community, but also creates opportunities for growth, collaboration and leadership among our lawyers and professionals.” The tenant's brokers weren't announced. The landlord's brokers, at CBRE, are Scotta Ashcraft and Riley Shephard. (Perform Properties is the new moniker for EQ Office.)
