Axis, in conjunction with Shiels Obletz Johnsen, Inc. (SOJ), managed the MarketFront project in downtown Seattle. This high-profile project at the world-famous Pike Place Market features 40 units of low income senior housing, 38,000 SF public plaza with Puget Sound views, 15,000 SF of makers retail space, and approximately 300 parking stalls. Axis oversaw the design and construction process, which included over 167 public meetings before starting construction, working with BNSF railway tunnel and an extremely tight urban site. The $72M project was funded through multiple public and private sources. MarketFront now ties into the overlook walk connecting the waterfront to First Avenue and transformed the downtown waterfront.

The Village at Totem Lake is a dynamic mixed-use center that offers a perfect blend of shopping, dining, entertainment, and living spaces, making it a premier destination for residents and visitors alike. With over 50 retail shops featuring national brands and local boutiques, as well as a variety of restaurants, it caters to diverse tastes and preferences. The property also includes 800 urban apartments, ample parking, and a pedestrian-friendly layout, ensuring convenience and accessibility for all.  Axis was engaged by CenterCal Properties, retail developer, to manage half of the new construction retail tenant improvements (TI's). Responsibilities included managing tenant relations, coordinating with architects, overseeing the bidding and construction processes, and ensuring seamless coordination with occupied office and residential spaces.

Regency Centers engaged Axis to expedite an overall master site development plan for a large-scale, 325,000 SF retail town center. Leveraging Axis’ long standing relationship with the master land developer and the City, Axis was instramental in expediting utility, building, and landscape permits to meet the scheduled grand opening dates for the retail tenants. The project stayed within the $70M project budget.
