Marriott at town center

Project Size: 234,000 square feet

Architect: Merriman Associates, Dallas, Texas

Developer: Western International Realty, Dallas, Texas

Contractor: E. Kent Halvorson, Redmond, Washington

The Marriott at Town Center provides elegant lodging for the rapidly growing Redmond area. In addition to luxury hotel suites, the project includes structured parking, an amenities floor, a health club with spa, and retail.

The structure is cast-in-place concrete with post-tensioned floor slabs. Seismic loads are carried by shear walls. The L-shaped structure is separated into two pieces by an expansion joint to improve seismic performance.

The project is nearby both Microsoft and Redmond Town Center, a major regional shopping destination.
