Give your Seattle buildings an engagement program tenants talk about.

Alvéole uses beehives to run a year-round tenant engagement program at your properties. Tenants gather around it, participate in it, and stay connected to the building because of it. Managed by us, with no operational lift for your team.

Bring an Alvéole program to your building

The Alvéole bees have been buzzing in Seattle since 2021. With some of the best summer weather in the country, Seattle is a growing hub for passionate beekeepers. The country’s 8th designated Bee City also counts on a buzzing urban agriculture scene, where urban beekeeping is a natural part of city life.

A living amenity tenants actually use

A rooftop beehive gives your building a physical anchor for programming, workshops, and honey harvests. Something no other building on the block has.
