City announces proposed purchase
The City of Vancouver announced on June 4 a tentative $18.5 million agreement to purchase the building at 415 W. Sixth Street and adjacent vacant land – a move the city said would consolidate facilities and capitalize on long-term budget savings of $1 million annually.
The 118,000 square-foot office building and adjacent land was formerly owned by The Columbian and is now owned by Bank of America. The original list price for the building was $41.5 million. The city's proposed purchase price is approximately 57 percent below list price.
