AMLI Arc Residential Tower

Mixed Use

ZGF provided planning and design for the 421,416 SF, 41-story residential tower with 393 units, part of a larger 728,712 SF mixed-use development that includes a 307,296 SF office tower for Amazon in Seattle’s burgeoning Denny Triangle neighborhood. A continuous façade envelops both towers and unifies the development while contrasting curtainwalls and fenestration distinguish between the office and residential components. The tower features extensive daylighting, access to views and landscaped streetscape improvements to foster the connection to the neighborhood and transparent nature of the tower.

Other features include a fitness center, media room, makers spaces, community kitchen, private meeting rooms, a dog run, and below-grade parking. The interior design mixes various textures with raw details and a rich palette drawn from the natural environment of the Pacific Northwest.
