The Seattle Times Co. has sold an eight-story South Lake Union office building to California real-estate investors and will become the building’s prime tenant, vacating the nearby building that has been its headquarters for 81 years.
The 1000 Denny Building was purchased this week for $36 million by an affiliate of Simms Commercial Development of Beverly Hills, public records indicate. It was one of two properties The Times put up for sale in 2008, saying it needed cash to pay down debt and subsidize its flagship newspaper, which, like most dailies, is struggling financially.
The sale “contributes to our financial stability,” Times Publisher Frank Blethen said in a message to employees Thursday. The Times had been asking $44 million for the property in recent months, according to offering materials.
Blethen said his company, which already occupies part of the Denny Building, would move its newsroom, executive offices and other operations now housed at its headquarters at 1120 John St. to the building. The Times is hoping to complete the move by the end of the year, he said.
The newspaper will occupy about 55 percent of the Denny Building’s 285,000 square feet. The lease is for 10 years, with options to extend, said Times spokeswoman Jill Mackie.

But Chongqing Mayor Huang Qifan said the pilot tax programmes were not aimed at clipping the soaring real estate prices that are a top consumer concern across the country.
“People will ask if I think the real estate tax will definitely bring property prices down…. No one believes the property tax will hit the nail on the head and bring prices down,” Huang told a news conference late Thursday.
He estimated the tax would generate 150 million yuan ($22.8 million) in revenue for the municipal government this year, according to an official transcript, although state media cited him as saying 200 million yuan.
Michael Klibaner, head of China research for property company Jones Lang LaSalle, said the ultimate aim of the tax was not to rein in prices, but rather to prevent hoarding of properties, a pressing problem in recent months.
“Previously there was very little holding cost for residential property because many people paid 100% cash for these properties. Now the holding cost is no longer zero,” Klibaner told AFP.
“When the holding cost is zero, it’s very easy to let these homes sit idle. It doesn’t cost you anything to let them sit there. It’s like gold,” he said. Read the rest of this entry »
