Tallest Building In Spokane Washington Proposed

Exciting news for Spokane Washinton real estate has recently been proposed.

'Plans are in the works to build what would become Spokane's tallest building, reaching all of 32 stories into air over downtown Spokane. Developer Ron Brewster is calling his latest proposal "The Vox Tower" - a mix of condos, apartment, retail space and a large parking garage.

The tower would be the tallest building in the city, rising another 12 stories over the bank of America Building, which sits at 20 stories tall. Plans call for it to be built on property Brewster owns near the corner of Riverside and Browne on the eastern edge of the City's downtown area.

Brewster says his biggest challenge will be persuading the City to remove the height restrictions so he can build 32 stories. Brewster says the downtown area needs new housing units, and he has support for his project.

"Downtown high-density living is a reality. And so we think it's great to have more density and more people living in downtown," said Brewster. "And we want to obviously manage the growth the right way, but we think it's a good thing to encourage downtown housing."

The top 12 stories of the building will be condominiums. The rest will be apartments - 275 of them in all. Brewster says he also plans to incorporate 18,000 square feet of retail space as well and build a parking garage to accommodate 380 cars.

In addition to asking the City of Spokane to waive height restrictions, Brewster says he will also ask the City and the State to waive some fees totaling about $600,000.'
