    Raze-or-Retrofi t: Evaluation of Seattle’s Commercial Building Stock for Energy Effi ciency Sean Shannon Engle A thesis submitted in partial fulfi llment of the requirements for the degree of: Master of Architecture University of Washington 2012 Joel Loveland, Chair Kathryn Merlino Program Authorized to Off er Degree: Department of Architecture University of Washington Abstract Raze-or-Retrofi t: Evaluation of Seattle’s Commercial Building Stock for Energy Effi ciency Sean Shannon Engle Chair of Supervisory Committee: Professor Joel Loveland Department of Architecture Both my Architecture (M.Arch) and Planning (MUP) theses work around the rubric of the Archi- tecture 2030 Challenge and the eff orts of the Seattle 2030 District to meet it (2030DC - see http:// www.2030district.org/seattle/ ). In taking up this challenge, the City of Seattle and the 2030DC have teamed up with major property owners, property managers, developers, architects and the Integrat- ed Design Lab at UW to target and benchmark existing opportunities in Seattle’s commercial building stock for potential deep retrofi ts and redesign. The goal of both theses is to provide the 2030DC with tools and intelligence that will assist in targeting its program and outreach eff orts. Both the M.Arch and MUP theses examine the behavior of commercial property owners and their pro- pensity to either retrofi t their buildings for energy effi ciency or raze them in favor of redevelopment. To determine this, in the M.Arch thesis I developed a scoring system that utilizes various algorithms to process publicly available data combined with other data developed locally to derive a score that permits an apples-to-apples comparison of that propensity.

KEY FEATURES of PROPOSED ACTION • This contract amendment is necessary to provide additional funding for: o Key individuals to facilitate project closeout through December 2007 o Support of integrated testing in the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel (DSTT) o Key individual support of systems/civil interface work within the DSTT in support of revenue service in the DSTT in September 2007 • The project had higher than expected costs primarily resulting from additional scope due to the complexity of the Downtown Seattle Transit Tunnel retrofit. Construction on the Pine Street restoration was to be finished by October 6, 2006, but was extended through May 15, 2007 due to the complexity of the cut and cover work in the downtown core, labor shortages, and a concrete workers strike.
