MATTHEW GARDNER MAKES NATIONAL NEWS

The Seattle City Council recently voted to reverse a building height limit in the downtown core of the city. Our company's Seattle Principal, Matthew Gardner, has been a part of the process through coordination with the Downtown Seattle Association. (I had a small part with a white paper I wrote some months back about the tax benefits of taller buildings).

But since then, he has co-published an editorial with the head of the DSA, Kate Joncas, in the Seattle Times about the benefits of greater density in downtown Seattle.

And yesterday to cap it off, the AP Wire picked up the story of the height limit reversal and Yahoo! News picked that up on its front page. Matthew is given the closing quote about significant changes to building heights downtown.

Congrats on the exposure!
