Seattle Municipal Tower is one of the cornerstones of the City of Seattle’s Civic Center campus. At 62 stories, it is the second tallest building in Seattle, and with a population of nearly 5,000 tenants, it is the most populous building in Seattle. Expressive, contemporary and Northwest-inspired, the building is an impressive addition to the downtown skyline, as well as a commentary on the prominence of its tenants.
In the past few decades, Seattle has quietly grown from a far-flung port city not registering on too many radar screens, to being nationally recognized as one of the most livable cities in the US. This recognition is based on criteria such as a critical mass of advanced technology, diverse economic sectors such as agriculture, services, manufacturing and international trade, superior educational and health care, public safety, a well-educated work force, quality of life and the international outlook of its people.
