Summit, the Seattle Convention Center’s addition at 9th and Pike, nearly doubled the capacity of the Center by adding 573,770 square feet of event space including 62 meeting rooms, a ballroom, exhibit space, and a naturally lit lobby space.

Covering 1.5 million square feet, Summit and the original Arch building, one and half blocks away, together create a campus built to usher in the future of meetings and conventions.

The Summit boasts a 14,000-square-foot outdoor Garden Terrace with a pollinator garden overlooking Seattle streets

By helping reduce the "heat island effect," this beautiful green space plays a key role in fostering sustainability. 

"Every bit of nature counts in creating a greener future, and we're proud to do our part. Let's keep building a more sustainable world, one green space at a time! "

  1. Met Park West, a block from the convention center, had bee hives on the roof a couple years ago - hope they are still there to enjoy this new garden a short flight away.
