Notes:
The building is the first Design-Build-Operate-Maintain (DBOM) structure that the University [of Washington] has constructed. What this means is that the shell and core, including elevators, the mechanical and electrical systems, are already designed. But the shape and composition of the internal space is determined by the the tenants, based upon their needs for wet labs, dry labs or offices. The building is designed so that it can meet current research needs but is flexible enough to be changed with relatively short notice.
