SEATTLE, Dec. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Vancouver-based Concord Pacific, the developer of Seattle House, a pair of residential towers in the Denny Triangle neighborhood near the Amazon Spheres announced the BioSpace Initiative – the first real estate developer in North America to enhance future residential buildings to include fewer touch points and better airflow to help reduce exposure to germs and viruses in high traffic areas. Seattle House will be one of the first buildings in the world to be constructed with these health and safety enhancements.

The BioSpace Initiative featured in the Seattle, London, Toronto and Vancouver developments will offer safer journeys to residents' front door including touchless building entry and elevator e-call from mobile devices. They will also include enhanced spatial planning of common spaces and amenities and air quality management along the way.

In addition to these base elements, Concord Pacific's wide range of building types will allow for further enhancements like in-suite steam closets to kill bacteria and viruses at Seattle House, covered courtyards and corridors with sustainable air flow systems at Marylebone Square in London and extended living in convertible four-season balconies at Concord Metrotown in Vancouver.

"Our future residents are going to expect these amenities that ensure safety and security," said Peter Webb, senior vice president of development at Concord Pacific. "Every day we're enhancing and furthering our commitment to the bio space initiative, specifically with the Seattle urban dweller in mind."

Seattle House condominiums will be built atop a marketplace and feature over 8,000 square feet of dedicated workspace on the second floor including small rooms for dedicated personal space for conference calls and small group meetings. This will be the largest dedicated co-working space amenity as part of residential building. Careful and purposeful planning of other amenities will allow the most entrepreneurial of urban dwellers seeking a wellness oasis to coexist. The project will offer studio, one- and two-bedroom floor plans; unit pricing will be released at a later date.

The livability- and green-living-focused developer defined the skylines of Vancouver and Toronto and has also distinguished London's business center with Principal Tower, which connects to Amazon's UK headquarters at Principal Place.
