Crews are demolishing sold Boeing office buildings in Kent along South 212th Street to make room for two new warehouses, one 318,000 square feet and the other 120,000 square feet.

The IDS Real Estate Group and Clarion Partners earlier this year purchased more than 70 acres from Boeing, adjacent to the Boeing Kent Space Center building.

One observer driving by said the building demolition “looks like a bomb hit it.”

IDS will call the facility the Stryker Business Center at Pacific Gateway. The property is zoned for manufacturing and industrial park.
