Research Plaza

Aerial photograph showing Research Plaza’s modern glass-and-steel building with green rooftop sections and biologists tending plants.

Home of Cascadia technology giant SoftLogic, Research Plaza is known for its deliberately empty sections that were created to allow nature a fingerhold in the building. These sections, with access restricted, are home to birds, plants, and insects that are cared for by a team of biologists and zoologists who maintain their habitats high above the cityscape.
