Multi-Family Residential Project
Experience
The Marselle Condominiums
A
132-unit structure in Seattle's Belltown neighborhood in the the shadow
of The Space Needle, with common amenities and four-story underground
parking, completed in 2009. Five ground-floor live/work units contribute to the life of
this busy street. Tinted concrete and metallic finishes create an honest
architectural expression with a refined, contemporary feel. Certified
Built SmartSM by Seattle City Light, The Marselle combines
earth-friendly materials and energy efficient design. |

The hybrid
concrete-wood structure comprises five stories of wood framing atop
a wood mezzanine and six stories of concrete (two above ground), making
it the first midrise of its kind in North America and the tallest
wood-frame structure in Seattle. Citation of the techniques used in its
construction contributed to a 2009 change to the British Columbia
Building Code, allowing the development of timber-frame medium rise
structures, firmly planting The Marselle in the pantheon of buildings
that are part of a world-wide movement to use more cost-effective,
greener building materials. |

The Matae Condominiums
Completed in 2006, this building was designed as a seven story, 78 unit, mixed use project.
At the time, the Belltown neighborhood consisted mainly of commercial structures, but this
cornerstone represented one of the "first kids on the block" in what is
now a bustling urban residential area. The ground floor commercial and
live/work units add a personal feel to both Denny and the adjoining alley. |
