Seattle Convention Center Summit Building






The Seattle Convention Center Summit building redefines the city’s urban core by serving as a vibrant connector among more than seven iconic neighborhoods and four major streets.
Designed to revitalize and reconnect Seattle’s downtown, Summit integrates seamlessly with its surroundings, offering a unique experience for both delegates and residents.
The 15-level structure features interactive, transparent façades that blur the lines between the building and the city, while natural light fills majors paces connected by two expansive atriums. A glass-enclosed stair along Pine Street showcases interior activity and offers sweeping views of Pike Place Market and Puget Sound, enhancing the building’s connection to the city. The street-level plaza at Pine and 9th Avenue invites community engagement, making Summit a dynamic public hub. By embracing evolving trends in convention centers and urban development, the project positions itself as a catalyst for Seattle’s continued growth and innovation.
