This main Harborview building received money for seismic upgrading from a King County bond issue passed in 2000. The North Building was sorrounded with a "fiber wrap," what has been described as "structural wallpaper," to hold the building together in an earthquake. NBBJ handled the seismic upgrades to this building.
