Continuing a Long‑Term Relationship
SRG’s familiarity with each component of the Seattle Center campus gives them a unique understanding of urban design issues impacting multipurpose public centers, such as evolving infrastructure, landscaping, traffic and pedestrian circulation, surrounding neighborhoods and sustainability goals.
SRG led a large team of design professionals to re-envision the future of the 74-acre Seattle Center campus and remains actively engaged in helping the site continue to develop. This project gave the Center’s programs and functions a new direction and provided strategies for realizing its mission. Gathering the necessary information and building consensus required extensive public outreach and involvement.
