Greg Smith 3rd Ave office building
Exciting news on 2nd Ave near Pioneer Square. This is great news to me, historic building preservation,
decent height (office) especially for that area - but
won't cover up the F5 building.
Hopefully it will have a higher quality ARTchitecture design.

and then scaled back to 60 — on the full block it owns between Second and Third avenues, and Marion and Columbia streets.
