Welcome to a Pacific wren’s view of 419 Occidental Ave.

Surely this songbird has much to sing about as it flies over this rooftop oasis of sustainability in Pioneer Square Seattle. From solar panels to lush gardens to beehives supporting the area’s ecosystem, this roof connects office tenants and visitors to nature. Not to mention spectacular views of Puget Sound, the Olympic Peaks, and the Stadium District.
