Why Lower Queen Anne is the Premier Location for a Commercial Lease in Seattle

No matter what industry you are in, location matters. This is especially true for businesses looking for headquarters in Seattle, where the density of foot traffic and the ease of public transit access can vary depending on the neighborhood you choose. 

So when the former home of the Seattle SuperSonics was renamed the Climate Pledge Arena in 2021, businesses throughout Lower Queen Anne celebrated. 

With the stadium’s rebranding came a wave of publicity. The Climate Pledge Arena promised to be the first events center with net-zero carbon certification, showcasing the city’s commitment to climate action. 

This publicity attracted crowds. After the arena reopened following the pandemic lockdowns, businesses operating out of Seattle commercial real estate properties in the Seattle Center’s neighborhood began seeing a rush of customers every time the Krakens hit the ice or a performer took the stage.

Martin Selig Real Estate recognizes the impact that a central and foot traffic-rich location can have on a business. Since its founding in 1958, MSRE has been helping tenants thrive in office spaces in Seattle that are ideally located to attract customers and offer easy commutes for employees. 

MSRE offers spaces for rent throughout Lower Queen Anne that are customizable to the unique needs of each business and industry.

Our property at 200 First West (also home to the MSRE team’s corporate office) gives tenants easy access to both I-5 and Ballard, connecting them to the Seattle neighborhoods that surround. Public transit offers easy access to and from the spaces for rent in this gorgeous building, which blends classic 1970s architecture with modern energy efficiency. 

The office spaces at 401 Queen Anne (now pre-leasing) are being outfitted with a sleek and modern design thanks to architecture firm Perkins + Will. Walk the tree-lined streets that surround this Seattle office space, with convenient I-5 and SR 99 access and 285 below-grade parking stalls across four levels.
