LEED Certification

Originally, the building was expected to earn LEED Silver certification,[4] but along the way improvements were made and the building ultimately earned LEED Gold certification.[5]

Architect

The building was designed by architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP (SOM). SOM has also designed buildings such as the Willis Tower in Chicago, the Burj Khalifa in the United Arab Emirates (the world's current tallest building), and the Air Force Academy Chapel in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Colorado. SOM also designed the One World Trade Center, which was built near where the destroyed World Trade Center once stood.[1]

History

Construction on the building was completed in December 2009.[1] The building was facing serious occupancy issues, with the pre-lease rate remaining at around 25%[6] but rates subsequently increased, especially with the largely publicized lease announcement of Goldman Sachs.[7][8] The building eventually became fully occupied.[9]

In February 2014, the property's original owners (and current building manager), Hamilton Partners, sold the building to KBS Real Estate Investment Trust III (KBS) for $170.5 million (equivalent to $Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "[". million in Template:Inflation/year) in "a record-setting deal for commercial real estate in Utah's capital city, on a cost per-square footage basis." At the time of purchase, KBS already owned the Parkside Tower and Gateway Tech Center in Salt Lake City.[8]
