Pacific Tower Space Utilization Evaluation

The Washington State Department of Commerce is seeking a qualified consulting firm to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the Pacific Tower building in Seattle. The contractor will assess current space utilization, develop at‑least‑two restacking scenarios, analyze financial and operational implications, and provide recommendations for optimizing the building’s use, including options for a second‑floor kitchen or office conversion. The work will involve data analysis of lease records, stakeholder interviews, community outreach, and the production of conceptual floor‑plan diagrams. • Perform a floor‑by‑floor utilization assessment of 152,000 sq ft (floors 1‑11) and create space‑planning concepts with furniture layouts. • Develop two distinct restacking scenarios, including financial feasibility, revenue‑generation potential, and renovation cost estimates for a commercial‑kitchen retrofit versus office conversion. • Conduct community‑outreach activities (July 2026) and interview tenants to incorporate stakeholder input into the final recommendation report due September 15 2026.
