Amazon is once again expanding its footprint around the South Lake Union neighborhood. According to a report from the Seattle Times, Amazon.com will be purchasing 3 blocks of commercial property in the Denny Triangle from Clise Properties.
The company’s impact on downtown Seattle is evident in the vast array of new shops, restaurants, and entertainment available in South Lake Union.  Plans for the Denny Triangle space include three separate office towers with 1 million square feet of office space each.  If built, the three buildings would contain nearly twice as much office space as the Columbia Center, Seattle’s tallest building. The move would double Amazon’s presence in South Lake Union, creating a likely increase in pressure for rentals and homes for sale in the area.
