The 35,000-square-foot facility houses the King County Sheriff’s 911 office and a regional emergency operations center. It was designed to withstand and function during man-made and natural disasters.
The project is up for LEED certification. Its concrete walls reduce cooling loads and help it use 25 percent less energy than specified by current state building code. |
