New Green HQ Almost Complete
Wednesday, March 5th, 2008
Construction on Weber Marketing Group’s new home office is in the home stretch. Crews are painting, laying carpet and installing work stations over the next 45 days. Weber Marketing Group should be taking occupancy around May 2nd.
The LEED Gold building reflects Weber Marketing Group’s commitment to eco-friendly and environmentally sustainable practices, but it doesn’t come without sacrifices.
For instance, to reduce greenhouse gasses, the building is the first constructed in Seattle in over 30 years without any air conditioning. According to extensive thermal modeling, indoor temperatures may exceed 80 degrees a few times a year.
It is hoped that the building will reduce energy consumption by 30 percent.
It has been three years since Weber Marketing Group started discussing the idea of a new home. Fortunately, a prime piece of real estate in Seattle’s South Lake Union area opened up and construction began just over a year ago.
The building is a joint venture with Weber Thompson Architects, a Seattle-based firm headed by Blaine Weber, the brother of Weber Marketing Group’s president, Mark Weber.
Weber Marketing Group’s new address will be:
225 Terry Ave N, Suite 400
Seattle, WA 98109
Phone numbers and emails will remain the same.
Our office will be closed May 2-4 while we relocate to the new space.
