The Seattle Times is reporting that Vulcan has purchased a 0.22-acre parcel at 515 Westlake Ave. N. for $3.75 million. That would be the 88 year old Hugo Loewy Company Building in South Lake Union.

Hmm, wierd. I’ve noticed that in IE the embedded code turns white on refresh. Bad bug. But in Google Chrome is works fine on refresh. Anyone else seeing this?
