a better alternative to coworking in downtown seattle
If your team is growing beyond shared desks and busy common areas, The Miken Building offers a private, elevated alternative to coworking, right in Seattle’s retail core. Our fully furnished, move in ready suites combine the flexibility of coworking with the privacy, professionalism, and branding power of a dedicated office.
Located at 1417 4th Ave, the building features newly renovated interiors, a refreshed lobby, bike room, showers, and beautifully designed full floor or partial floor suites.
Why Choose The Miken Building Instead of Coworking?
Fully Furnished, Rent‑Ready Suites
The building offers furnished, rent‑ready spaces that allow teams to move in quickly—similar to coworking convenience, but with full privacy and without shared‑desk limitations.

Prime Downtown Location
Steps from Seattle’s best transit, retail, dining, and amenities, the building sits in the center of an active urban ecosystem ideal for employee convenience.
