The SBRI Building is a five-story facility located at 307 Westlake Avenue North in Seattle's fast-growing biomedical hub in the South Lake Union neighborhood.  The building is designed as a state-of-the-arts research facility with 112,000 square feet of laboratory, office and retail space. 

SBRI holds an ownership stake in the facility, demonstrating that we are investing in our future and ourselves.  Our scientists and their labs, located on the fourth and fifth floors, fill over half of the facility, with a number of bench research programs from VLST Corporation and Kineta, Inc. occupying the remaining space.  The first floor includes retail space, as well as a dedicated learning lab and science gallery, allowing our highly regarded BioQuest science education program to reach even more high school students and teachers than ever before.

LEED Certification

Designed as an energy and water-efficient facility, the SBRI Building received a Silver LEED rating from the U.S. Green Building Council.  LEED, which stands for "Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design" is the council's rating system used to create a national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings.  The SBRI Building is the first lab building to be certified under the LEED Core & Shell Pilot Program.

Public Art

The SBRI Building commands attention with art installations at the Westlake entrance and in the conference room window on Thomas Street, as well as in the lobby of the building.  Well-regarded local artist Linda Beaumont (known for her sculpture "The Tempest" that hangs in the rotunda at Safeco Field) has designed architectural glass pieces combining DNA sequences with images of the organisms SBRI scientists study.
