The team sheds light on the important role that budget, structure type, and project location plays in mass timber planning and decision-making.

2005 Poplar team give a virtual tour of the first commercial building in Issaquah, WA to use cross laminated timber.

The 2005 Poplar building incorporates a number of unique design elements including CLT, a glass-enclosed stairway that illuminates at night, light fixtures made of recycled cardboard, and a sculpture of a buck with a bit of a history.

You may have noticed an increase in references to mass timber in recent months. These two words are finding their way into everyday AECO language.

At the end of September, Issaquah welcomed a brand-new office project that will serve as a gateway to the neighborhood and a precedent for a number of future projects in the pipeline.

With the West Main project in Downtown Bellevue, Vulcan Real Estate aims to build a space that grows the city, brings life to the streets, and supports the community along the way.

GLY recently completed construction on a mixed-used office building located at 2005 NW Poplar Way in Issaquah, Washington. First breaking ground in August 2019, the four-story, 70,000 square-foot building is owned by Rowley Properties and is open for tenants beginning October 2020.

Occupancy for Rowley Properties’ 2005 Poplar office building is projected for October. The four-story development broke ground on a speculative basis about a year ago. The design, by VIA Architecture, makes extensive use of cross-laminated timber, lowering the project’s carbon footprint.

Issaquah’s landscape has several prominent new additions including Rowley Properties’ 2005 Poplar. The four-story office building just off I-90 features a cross-laminated timber [CLT] ceiling and CLT stairs and wall inside a glass-enclosed stairwell.

The 2.6 acre “Beach” at Expedia Group’s new campus on the shores of Seattle’s Puget Sound is open to the public. Though intended for outdoor meetings, the Beach has been hosting small musical performances, yoga, and other open-air activities.

GLY has a long-standing involvement with Forterra so when the opportunity surfaced earlier this year to join them for their mass timber event, we jumped on it!
