Skanska Starts Construction on Multi-Family Tower, Retail Space in Seattle

Skanska is to begin construction on Kaye, a 260,619-square-foot multi-family tower located in Seattle, Washington. Skanska will both build and develop the 31-story tower with 6,100 square feet of neighborhood ‘living room’ spaces and ground floor retail. The tower is expected to be completed by Q2 2025.

Skanska celebrates the site’s musical past through the design of the ground-level living room that will cater to a mix of uses ranging from band rehearsal space to a café, retail space and a working lounge.

Led by the Dayna Dealy, vice president for Skanska USA Commercial Development’s Seattle market, the project will target Salmon-Safe, LEED Gold, Fitwel and WiredScore Gold certifications. The tower will feature 324 units, including 10 larger three-bedroom family units. Additionally, as part of the Housing Affordability and Livability Agenda program, Kaye will contribute an estimated $4.5-million to the city’s affordable housing fund.
