Swedish Orthopedic Institute Seattle, WA

Covering a full city block on Seattle’s First Hill, this facility rises eight stories above grade and four below. The 372,000 SF building connects to the heart of the Swedish Medical Center campus, both with a skybridge and a below-grade tunnel.

Lund Opsahl's approach provided on-time deliverables, responsive to an aggressive fast-track project delivery method. Our state-of-the-art BIM modeling enabled the team to cut the construction schedule from 22 to 19 months.
