Scope Of Work
Virginia Mason Athletic Center - Home of the Seattle Seahawks - Super Bowl Champions 2014
Renton, Washington
Project-Type: GC/CM Construction
Description: The Virginia Mason Athletic Center (VMAC), new Home of the Seattle Seahawks, is located in Renton, Washington on the shores of Lake Washington . Purchased by Vulcan Real Estate in 2000, the 19 acre property was formerly home to a coal tar refinery & creosote plant, since remediated by Vulcan in concert with the City of Renton and the Washington State Department of Ecology. The project improved the environmental climate of Renton and its wetlands by improving and redeveloping the site. The property now supports three outdoor natural grass practice fields, a maintenance building and a 225,000 SF office building. The three-story L shaped building contains a full size indoor turf practice field, complete with regulation end zones, state of the art fitness facilities, training equipment and amenities for players. The building also houses the front office headquarters for the team's office departments, administrators and faculty, and accommodates the corporate sponsorships and Fan Development offices previously located at Qwest Field. The new facility is four times the size of the previous Kirkland, Washington facility.
