The Seattle Civic Square is a proposed 520-foot (160 m) tall, 43-story skyscraper in Seattle, Washington, that was approved by the city in 2009.[1] The building will include space for retail, offices, and residences.[2] The development will also include a 30,000 square feet (2,800 m2) public plaza.[3]

The site has been vacant since the previous structure, the Public Safety Building, was demolished in 2005.[4] As of November 2012, the Civic Square project is on hold as the developers search for financing or a tenant.[5]
