Seattle's 12th Man Isn't Discouraged

There's no sugarcoating what happened in the heartbreaking last minute of the game last night. But Seahawks fans are loyal. If you can be in the Super Bowl twice in a row, three times isn't out of the question.

Mortenson Construction made a point of showing its 12th Man pride during the game at its main office in Kirkland.

And at the Hill 7 hotel, office and parking garage project. Mortenson is building the project for Touchstone in the Denny Triangle area of downtown Seattle.

We will give JLL Americas's Roger Staubach credit for calling the game this year. (Last year, he predicted that team from Colorado would win.) JLL also provided some comparative office marker stats for Seattle vs Boston. Seattle's the clear winner in office vacancies, 10.7% compared with 14.7%, while direct average rent is slightly higher for Boston at $31.74/SF vs. $31.60/SF. Also worth noting: NerdWallet ranked the Greater Seattle area as the second-best place for STEM graduates, and Fast Company voted it the smartest city in North America.
