We're closing out the week with our final award-winning project from NAIOP Washington State's Night of the Stars Gala: the Seattle Storm Center for Basketball Performance, which received the Judges' Choice - Icon Award. ?? The new facility, designed by ZGF Architects and Shive-Hattery, serves as the dedicated practice facility for Seattle's four-time champion WNBA franchise. As the first ground-up facility built specifically for a WNBA franchise, the new building represents an unprecedented investment in elite women athletes and underscores the rapid growth of women's sports nationwide. In alignment with the Storm's vision for the project, women comprised 85% of the project management and design team, and more than 40% of the subcontracted scope was performed by women-owned and diverse-owned subcontractors and suppliers. Congratulations to everyone who contributed to this iconic new space!
