EQ Office Recognizes Office’s New Role in 800 Fifth Redesign

EQ Office recently unveiled its redevelopment of 800 Fifth in Seattle’s downtown. The repositioning will maximize exposure and access to the outdoors, blurring the lines between private and public spaces.

800 Fifth’s redevelopment demonstrates the broader trends EQ Office recognizes are part of the future role of the physical office. The work is expected to be completed in mid-2022.

With a heightened focus on health and wellness, 800 Fifth includes ample fitness, wellness and social amenities. Reconceived spaces will encompass areas for private and public use including a remodeled entry and lobby, and a new fitness center. The public outdoor plaza and garden will create new areas for connection.

“Seattle is an incredibly active and tight-knit community, and we wanted 800 Fifth to support the needs of local talent and underscore the ethos and values of the people who make this a distinctive city. We sought out a unique design approach and partnered with Olson Kundig to sustainably give our building a new life, introducing natural materials, and home-like indoor and outdoor spaces,” said Zach Zaborowski, vice president at EQ Office.
