Making room. In 2024, KCTS 9 and Crosscut.com left Seattle Center for a renovated headquarters on Seattle’s First Hill, coming together under one roof and one name: Cascade PBS.

Abbott completed the renovation with JPC Architects. The most significant coordination challenge centered around removing two structural columns from the main event space to provide better sightlines, which took significant engineering review and multiple permit revisions with the City of Seattle. At the studio spaces, walls up to 11-3/8 inches thick were constructed to meet organizational acoustic requirements for the various broadcasts and recordings completed from the facility.

The result supports Cascade PBS’s digital production work and its public events, with a 240-seat event space and a terrace with views of Mount Rainier. The interior design draws on the natural environment of the Pacific Northwest, the region Cascade PBS serves.

Sleeves up. Last week, Bloodworks Northwest brought its donation bus to our Seattle office.

15 of our people donated, and 5 gave blood for the first time. Each donation can help save up to 3 lives, so together that’s up to 45 people!

Bloodworks collects, tests, and distributes blood to more than 90 hospitals across the Pacific Northwest, usually within 24 hours of donation. What our people gave last week is likely already in use.

Thank you to everyone who rolled up a sleeve, and to the Bloodworks team for the care they took with every donor.

Safety is worth celebrating. Last month, our Seattle team gathered at the historic Georgetown Stables for our Safety BBQ.

The pitmaster was one of our own. Jerry Keane, Abbott foreman and owner of Duelin’ J’s BBQ, provided the meal and served it alongside construction manager Brian Bernhoft. There was trivia and a raffle, with power tools and accessories stacked into a small mountain on the stage. Swag and dessert were plentiful, and everyone had a chance to catch up over a meal.

All of it was to celebrate the people who take care of each other every day, on and off the jobsite.

Here to learn. Hailing from the University of Washington, Washington State University, and Purdue, eight interns spent the summer with us.

Along with writing RFIs, assembling submittals, and witnessing firsthand how a project runs, interns shared how much they learned about communication, setting expectations, and building strong relationships among owners, architects, and trade partners. All three are essential parts of a successful project.

Between all that learning, they got to have some fun: team lunches, a baseball game, our employee appreciation party, and other office events.

Perhaps most encouraging was hearing how their internships built confidence in understanding and navigating construction. Their futures are bright. We can’t wait to see what they do next.

Thank you to our interns for joining us, and to our Abbott teams who welcomed and mentored them!

Built to be seen. West of Tradition, a new documentary on American single malt wh***ey, features Westland Wh***ey Distillery, and Westland is hosting screenings at its S**O distillery this fall. We helped build that distillery.

When Westland started in 2010, it made wh***ey in a South Park production space with no public face. In 2013, its founders moved into a 1919 S**O warehouse once used to build cranes. Abbott and URBANADD (now Architecture) transformed the warehouse into the first American single malt wh***ey distillery of its size in the Pacific Northwest.

The design wove the guest tours right into the fermenting and distillation process. The original dirt floors were covered in polished concrete, and the reception desk and tasting bar came from a fir tree one of the owners felled on his family's property.

From no public face to a distillery designed for visitors. Now Westland is on screen.

Moving up. Abbott ranks No. 29 on the Largest Private Companies in Washington list from Puget Sound Business Journal—up from No. 36 last year.

Seven spots in one year. Thank you to our people, and to the clients and trade partners who built with us.

Creating a warm landing. We recently celebrated the groundbreaking of the new Warm Landing Place Facility for Los Angeles County Justice Care and Opportunities Department. The three-level building will sit directly across from Men's Central Jail in downtown Los Angeles and will be open 24/7. People leaving custody will walk out to housing support, behavioral health resources, counseling, and a path toward long-term stability, so they won’t have to go it alone.

The project is part of the County’s Care First, Jails Last vision. It’s also Angeles County Public Works’ first progressive design-build project, which we’re delivering with NAC.

It’s official. Abbott ranked #11 among Washington’s Best Workplaces in the large company category, and it was our first year submitting.

The ranking is scored on employee survey answers, so this one belongs to our people. They are the ones who build a place worth showing up to, and they are the ones who said so. Thank you to everyone who took the survey, and to Troy Stedman, Edward Santander, Leland Murphy, and Kyle Hepper for representing Abbott at the awards event at T-Mobile Park.

Let’s talk about it. This week we’re taking time at our jobsites and offices to talk about the uncomfortable truth. The rate of su***de in construction is around 4x higher than the general population and nearly 5x higher than jobsite fatalities. Construction can be an extremely stressful field, and we can’t ignore the data.

So for this Construction Su***de Prevention Week, we’re taking action alongside our STO Building Group family of builders. We’re taking time to raise awareness, make room for people to share their stories, engage helpful tools, and empower everyone to listen and respond in kind and helpful ways. We all need help sometimes.

You can help too. By connecting with the people in your circle, by sharing your struggles and listening to their stories, you make space for others to be seen and heard.

Small conversations can make a big difference. So let’s talk.

Football is back. Tonight the defending champs Seahawks face the Patriots again at Lumen Field, in a stadium our crews helped transform.

We’ve worked across the property, from back-of-house locker rooms, ticket offices, and production rooms to spaces fans know well like the Pro Shop, the Tunnel Club, and the Hawks Nest. Much of it happened in tight windows around a building that never really goes dark.

Go Hawks!
