Amazon HQ just announced that it will be leasing two new buildings in the South Lake Union area. These buildings are under construction by Paul Allen’s Vulcan Real Estate near Mercer Street. Amazon plans to start moving people into the two 12 story buildings in late 2015.
This move will add an additional 614,000 square feet to Amazon’s current 2.7 million square feet of office space in the area, of which 1.8 million it purchased from Vulcan just last year.
All of this is in addition to the new headquarters campus that Amazon is building for itself right now closer to downtown Seattle.
