LERCH BATES WINS “MILESTONE” WASHINGTON STATE PROJECT
Lerch Bates Inc. has been hired by Kemper Development Co. and Affiliates to design the vertical-transportation system for the 1.5-million sq. ft. expansion of Lincoln Square in Bellevue, Washington, which includes 47 elevators and six escalators. The expansion consists of 400 Lincoln Square, a 31-story office building overlooking Lake Washington and downtown Seattle, and Two Lincoln Tower, a 40-story W hotel joined with a midrise apartment building. 400 Lincoln Square and Two Lincoln Tower will sit atop a multilevel podium housing retail and entertainment. Lerch Bates Area Vice President Jeff Marsh called it “the next milestone in the city's evolution to a regional business hub."

Harmar was the preferred lift brand of the family. Harmar provided the lift, and dealer 101 Mobility provided the installation. Both companies said it was a very rewarding experience.
