Hines Launches Construction on Pre-Leased Bellevue Development

Houston-based Hines commenced construction on Summit 3, a 374,220-square-foot, 17-story Class A office building in Bellevue, WA. The development will be built to optimize a new design for high-density technology firms, and has already been pre-leased, reportedly to Amazon.

Located at the corner of 108th Avenue NE and NE 4th Street, the project will be constructed on top of an existing seven-story subterranean parking garage. It will showcase full-height 9-foot by 10-inch windows, achieving 50% more exterior glazing than under the Washington State prescriptive energy code, maximizing excellent natural light and magnificent mountain views. The building is pre-certified LEED v4 Gold, and has also been certified as Designed to Earn the ENERGY STAR.

Summit 3 will be the third building in The Summit portfolio. On-site amenities include The Summit Room, which functions as a lobby, building lounge and meeting area, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a conference center, restaurant and child care facility.
