The Fourth and Blanchard Building, also known as the Sedgwick James Building or the Darth Vader building,[2][3] is a skyscraper located in the Belltown neighborhood just north of downtown Seattle. The high-rise style construction rises to 105 meters (344 feet) and has 25 floors above the ground. Chester L. Lindsey Architects, notable as the architects of the Columbia Center, designed the building.[4] The building holds commercial office space.

The building was completed in 1979 and is clad in reflective glass. Its design is reminiscent of Houston's Pennzoil Place.[4]
