This Sunday at 6 p.m. Pacific, Seattle’s second-tallest high-rise—Rainier Square Tower—will be featured on season four of the Smithsonian Channel’s “How Did They Build That?“, a series about the world’s most impressive man-made structures.
The show will also be available to stream on Paramount+.
Hear from Shannon Testa, vice president of operations, and project leads from NBBJ and Magnusson Klemencic Associates as they highlight the innovations that made this 58-story tower possible, including the secant wall shoring system, groundbreaking SpeedCore structural system, 3D-printed curtain wall components, and more.
Since its debut, Wright Runstad’s Rainier Square Tower has redefined what’s possible in high-rise construction.
