This
unique historic building was constructed in 1906 and is listed in the
National Register of Historic Places. The project involved renovating
King Street Station into a mixed-use building; Amtrak’s passenger rail
station is housed on the first floor, while commercial office space is
located on the second and third floors. The completed station functions
as a major hub for the regional commuter rail transportation system as
well as a link between the north-south Cascades passenger rail line,
while reflecting the local character and heritage of Seattle.
Programming
and Development
barrientos was hired by WSDOT to
develop a master development plan for this building and to develop a
structure for the redevelopment that included a public-private
partnership component.
