Lincoln Property Company and JV partner Intercontinental Real Estate Corporation have completed construction on a 263,000-square-foot office tower in Seattle’s University District.

Formerly known as the U District Station Building, the recently opened property is now called the Gateway Building. The University of Washington pre-leased 133,000 square feet, where it will support innovation and research activities. Located at 4328 Brooklyn Avenue NE, the Gateway Building rises 13 stories and sits atop the U District light rail station.

The Gateway Building was designed by Perkins&Will and GLY Construction served as the general contractor. Cavan O’Keefe, Tim O’Keefe and Jesse Ottele of Newmark are leasing the remaining 123,000 square feet of Class A office space. Jennifer Seversen of CBRE is leasing the 3,500 square feet of ground-floor retail.

“We are pleased to have delivered this asset in partnership with Intercontinental and the University of Washington, as well as the Seattle Sound Transit Agency, who we worked closely with on the transit element of the Gateway Building,” said Alex Aigner, Executive Vice President of Lincoln.
