Emerald City Tower

Since the fall of 2006, Spencer Alpert has focused considerable effort on locating an appropriate site for a world-class mixed use residential/office tower to serve the highest end of the vibrant Seattle market. Working diligently with representatives of top environmental groups, “green” contractors, governmental entities and community booster organizations, Mr. Alpert has taken the initiative, along with world renowned Callison architects and internationally recognized private club operator ClubCorp in designing a top quality, sustainable building with input on the “front end” from this well-organized blue ribbon group of community leaders. Dubbed the “Green Team”, this group, while operating organically, has as its goal the ability to marry state-of-the-art energy efficiency, water conservation and other environmentally friendly features with the economic feasibility necessary to finance and construct an iconic office and residential tower in downtown Seattle.

Once successful, it is hoped this project - well beyond the current LEED standard - will serve as a beacon for future sustainable development in Seattle and worldwide.

Auburn Junction

In April, 2008, Alpert International won a Request for Proposals advertised by the city of Auburn, Washington and was selected for exclusive negotiations for redevelopment of a substantial part of Auburn’s downtown which successfully resulted in a formal Master Plan Development Agreement that received unanimous City Council support. Known as Auburn Junction, this development is designed to create a new “urban village” – a green, mixed use, urban-style, commercial and residential dominated project featuring ground floor retail and restaurant facilities and incorporating open spaces. Ideally situated in the heart of downtown Auburn between the Sound Transit Station, Auburn’s City Hall, and Safeway Grocery Store, just one block from Auburn Regional Medical Center, Auburn Junction will provide a positive lifestyle experience for residents, guests, and retail visitors alike.

The $240 million, multi-phased project is anticipated to create over 1 million square feet of new development, generate over $200 million of revenue to the city over the next 30 years, and transform this largely vacant, underutilized area into a regional destination that supports and revitalizes historic downtown Auburn.

In addition to the Master Plan Development Agreement, the city formally adopted the Alpert-proposed Auburn Junction Design Guidelines that requires all development within Auburn Junction to achieve at least LEED Silver certification and strive to meet the objectives of the Living Building Challenge – the first municipality to require such a high level of “green” standards.

Steel Lake Village

In Federal Way, an affiliate of Alpert International, Alpert Capital, was selected as a finalist by the city of Federal Way for redevelopment of a key four acre city-owned parcel in the center of its downtown commercial core. Originally one of seven applicants to submit plans for the former AMC theater site, Alpert Capital proposed an urban mixed use sustainable development to be the cornerstone of a revitalized Federal Way.

The project, Steel Lake Village, was conceived to create a sense of community for the divergent commercial elements that currently make up the city's downtown. Alpert International teamed with Williams & Dame Development of Portland, Ankrom Moisan Architects of Seattle and Portland and Skanska Construction Company of Seattle in designing the project.

Though another finalist was selected for exclusive negotiations, the $350 million proposal received three of seven council votes and unanimous acclaim as “well conceived and well funded”.
